Why it is on our radar

Veterinarians’ own accounts connect the treatment of animals with the people who depend on them, giving care a reciprocal, sometimes unexpected shape.

About the book

James Patterson and Matt Eversmann, with Chris Mooney, collect veterinarians' accounts of the animals they treat and the people connected to them. Stories of companions, working animals and rescues explore the reciprocal care that can emerge between an animal, its owner and its doctor.
