Book excerpt: Excerpt from Veterinary State Board Questions and Answers Being intimately associated with veterinary students, the author is fully aware of the feelings of fear and mysticism with which they are possessed when confronted with the ordeal of taking a State Board examination. Partly to dispel these fears, but more to provide a means of self-quizzing, this work was undertaken. A large number of State Board questions from ten of the more representative eastern and a few of the middle and western States have been sorted over. Those contained herein represent what was left after eliminating hundreds of duplicates. The few duplications which remain serve to illustrate the close relationship of the various subjects to one another. The overlapping and the necessary process of elimination resulted in the abbreviation of some subjects, especially Sanitary Science, Pathology and Zootechnics, to a considerable degree. Many topics, considered elsewhere, might rightly have been inserted under these headings. The author lays no claim to literary genius or bombastic propensities. The aim has been to supply brief, accurate answers, and this has been done many times at the expense of grammatical precision. The extensive library of the Veterinary School of the University of Pennsylvania, being at my disposal, has been thoroughly perused and the highest authorities on the different phases of veterinary science have been carefully consulted and compared. It would be impossible to make acknowledgment to all in the space allotted. To my colleagues, with whom it is a privilege to associate, and who have endeared themselves by their valuable suggestions and advice, my heartfelt thanks are due. It is the author's hope that this humble beginning will meet the student's demands for a means of self-interrogation in preparing for State Board and Civil Service examinations. Incidentally, by reason of the complete index, it may, in a measure, satisfy the need of a convenient, complete, reliable reference book on veterinary science. To the end that this may be accomplished, criticisms and suggestions will be cheerfully received. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
