Résumé
In Canada, the risk of arthropod-transmitted infections in dogs and cats is considerably less than in other parts of the world. However, in light of the increasing ease with which dogs and cats can travel globally, the interest in adopting pets from international locations (currently from the southeast USA), and the predicted climate change, it is increasingly likely that veterinarians in Canada will see dogs or cats with arthropod-borne diseases. This book provides succinct, up-to-date, information on the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and zoonotic risk of each of the major arthropod-borne diseases of dogs and cats — anaplasmosis, babesiosis, bartonellosis, borreliosis, cytauxzoonosis, Dirofilaria immitis (heartworm) infection, ehrlichiosis, hepatozoonosis, leishmaniosis, and rickettsial infections. Other, less common, infections are also briefly reviewed. Prior to discussing each of these diseases, the authors have provided a useful, practical review on the arthropod vectors and wildlife reservoirs involved in the epidemiology of each pathogen. In addition, since immune-mediated disease is a common occurrence with many of these infections, current information on the immune mechanisms underlying each disease is clearly described. In later sections, this information is used to justify the most appropriate diagnostic tests and treatment options for each disease. Finally, a useful chapter is included that discusses the utility of the various diagnostic tests for arthropod-borne diseases that are currently available in commercial diagnostic laboratories. Each of the chapters is well-written by experts on the diseases from around the world and, unlike other texts on the same topic, provides current information on the global risk of infection for both dogs and cats. In light of the newly emerging nature of some of these diseases in specific parts of the world, such information is particularly helpful. The authors have included a large number of good quality color pictures that are visually appealing, informative, and greatly enhance the readability of the book, consistently throughout the chapters. The clinical pathology pictures are of consistently high quality. However, it would have been helpful for the reader if the authors had included the names of the stains that were used to generate many of the pictures. The only other weakness identified concerned the section on heartworm. Compared with other chapters, the text could have been a little more clinically relevant and, in some places, a little more up-to-date. However, overall, the text was very informative. In summary, at approximately CDN$93, this book is excellent value for money. Furthermore, the text is well-suited for both veterinary students and veterinary practitioners with a specific interest in vector-borne diseases of companion animals.
