Designed for busy small animal practitioners, this manual offers concise, practical guidance on canine veterinary care. Authored by experienced veterinarians, it addresses common uncertainties faced in consultations, emphasizing traditional systems-based medicine alongside essential practice skills like consultation techniques. The book includes a clinical presentations section that provides first-line approaches in a problem-oriented format, focusing on comprehensive physical examinations, detailed clinical histories, and accessible diagnostic tests.

Ken Robinson explores the importance of creativity and innovation in education and the workplace. He argues that traditional educational systems often stifle creativity, advocating for a reimagined approach that nurtures individual talents and promotes critical thinking. Through engaging anecdotes and thought-provoking insights, Robinson emphasizes the need for a more holistic and personalized learning experience, one that values diverse intelligences and prepares individuals for a rapidly changing world. His work inspires educators and leaders to foster environments where creativity can thrive.

"Imagination and creativity are at the root of every uniquely human achievement and those achievements have brought us to this present moment. We are now the largest population in human history: seven and half billion people, rising to nine billion by 2050. Our technologies are evolving exponentially, but spiritually and emotionally, we're not keeping pace. Our appetites are straining the earth's capacity to sustain us, and our attempts to force it to do so are fuelling a holocaust of other species. Communities across the globe are still locked in ancient cultural conflicts, and while the majority of people are materially more comfortable than ever before, there are global epidemics of depression and anxiety. To meet these existential challenges, we have to harness our creativity to a more compassionate and sustainable vision of the world we want to live in and the lives we hope to lead. To do that, we have to create new systems of education for the future and for our children that are based on organic principles of diversity, creativity, and collaboration." -- Publisher's description

A New York Times-bestselling breakthrough book about talent, passion, and achievement from the one of the world's leading thinkers on creativity and self-fulfillment. The Element is the point at which natural talent meets personal passion. When people arrive at the Element, they feel most themselves and most inspired and achieve at their highest levels. With a wry sense of humor, Ken Robinson looks at the conditions that enable us to find ourselves in the Element and those that stifle that possibility. Drawing on the stories of a wide range of people, including Paul McCartney, Matt Groening, Richard Branson, Arianna Huffington, and Bart Conner, he shows that age and occupation are no barrier and that this is the essential strategy for transform­ing education, business, and communities in the twenty-first century. Also available from Ken Robinson is Imagine If, a call to action that challenges and empowers us to reimagine our world and our systems for the better, through a compilation of Sir Ken's key messages and philosophies.

From the Back Cover: "It is often said that education and training are the keys to the future. They are, but a key can be turned in two directions. Turn it one way and you lock resources away, even from those they belong to. Turn it the other way and you release resources and give people back to themselves. To realize our true creative potential —in our organizations, in our schools and in our communities— we need to think differently about ourselves and to act differently towards each other. We must learn to be creative." —Ken Robinson
