In this book (Guide In Ruminant Medicine ) we try to highlight on the most important medicinal problems which can occur in the ruminant and affect on the general health and productivities of the ruminant with explanation of the main etiological and predisposing factors of the diseases as well as pathogenesis, clinical forms, methods of diagnosis and the main lines of treatment and control of the most important medicinal diseases that affecting sheep, goat, cattle, buffalos, and camel. This book consists of main six parts, (I)Small Ruminant Medicine ( sheep and goat), (II) Large Ruminant Medicine (cattle and buffalo) , (III) Some of general systemic and toxic diseases (IV) Practical ruminant medicine (V) Camel Medicine and (VI) MCQ and study questions with appendix including glossary of the most common veterinary terminology, veterinary drug index, normal physiological parameters and normal laboratory values of ruminants. We try in this book to be suitable for the students of the facilities of veterinary medicine, veterinarians as well as the students of the postgraduate studies.
