We are setting up a mobile vet unit and this is a good practice book to get any cobwebs in the brain out! Starts off with basic math and offers tons of real practice practice. Those decimal points are critical!

I am an instructor in a veterinary technology program. This textbook helps me explain some of the trickier calculations that we do in different ways so all the students are better able to understand them.
