    Exelent Book, The best for an Introduction course for animal Nutrition
    I’m a Veterinary Medicine Student and the National University of Colombia, Bogota, This is the book that is recommended for “Animal Nutrition” Course, I’ve read so far 5 chapters and it has been really amazing it explains things in easy and clear way to understand and on the other hand the student companion web page is great (I’ll ad a link to it). I really recommend this book if you want to learn Basic animal Nutrition.Ps.(The paper back cover can fold and get with wrinkles so I recommend to put a plastic on top to protect it).Carlos Andres Pinzon AVeterinary Medicine StudentUNIVERSIDAD NACIONAL DE COLOMBIA, BogotaStudents Companion Web Page Link: […]

    School Textbook
    This is one of those textbooks that you’ll keep long after the class is over – I was skeptical when I opened the book for the first time and realized that it was much more of a resource text than a traditional textbook, there are no pictures and the text is supplemented only with scientific tables and graphs. However, I realized that in the long run it would be much more useful! If you want a comprehensive overview of animal nutrition you really can’t do better then ponds!

    Authoritative Basic Understanding of Animal Nutirtion
    This book is an authoritative text on the basic understanding of animal nutrition. Although the focus is livestock the principles are useful for all animals (including companion and exotics). It provides the basics that can be used to launch further study on specific nutritional topics, or enough for the non-nutritionist to grasp the principals required for understanding broad nutritional concepts. It is also a valuable reference book. It is organized based on the common principals of nutrition. The book delivered was as described.

    The material may seem a little bit dry but the information is useful for a Fundamentals of Nutrition course
    This book was only a suggested purchase (rental) by the professor but it helped fill in all the blanks that weren’t detailed in the course, yet the students were still expected to know more in depth for quizzes and exams. If this is only a suggested book for you , go ahead and get it. The material may seem a little bit dry but the information is useful for a Fundamentals of Nutrition course.

    Great Book
    I used this book for an Animal Nutrition Class over the summer. This book is not what I would call ‘light reading’ but it is a very full text and both illustrated and explained many topics that were confusing when my professor spoke about them. Some parts of the book are a little more vague, but only because the research to fill in the blanks does not exist yet. Overall it is a wonderful book and very informative on the nuances of Animal Nutrition.
