Preface
A lot of water has passed under the bridge since the popular first edition of this book. Needless to
say the writing of textbooks is not a full-time occupation for any of the authors but rather a com-
plementary activity to teaching, research and diagnostic service. This project was driven by a love
of books. On more than one occasion the writing faltered due to other more pressing commitments
and the vicissitudes of life in general. We have tried to retain the essential structure and character
of the first edition while updating and adding new material as necessary. In particular, the virology
section has been greatly expanded with the addition of a chapter for each of the families containing
viruses of veterinary importance. For taxonomy we have relied heavily on resources such as the List
of Prokaryotic Names with Standing in Nomenclature (www.bacterio.cict.fr/), the virus list of the
International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ictvonline.org/index.asp) and Index Fungorum
(www.indexfungorum.org/). For information on the diagnosis of many of the more important
infectious diseases of farm animals we have frequently consulted the Manual of Diagnostic Tests
and Vaccines for Terrestrial Animals on the website (www.oie.int/en/international-standard-setting/
terrestrial-manual/access-online/) of the OIE (Office International des Epizooties – World Organisa-
tion for Animal Health). We hope we have succeeded in producing a book that is useful, informative
and appealing.
