David M. Sherman '72 published Tending Animals in the Global Village -- A Guide to International Veterinary Medicine in May 2002. Tending Animals in the Global Village is a unique new offering relevant to veterinary students, practitioners, academics and policymakers. This book serves as a guide through the evolving landscape of international veterinary medicine. It provides the reader with insights into the global trends which are shaping the future of veterinary medicine, and identifies the new global challenges and opportunities for veterinarians working at home or abroad. A diverse range of international issues are discussed from a veterinary perspective including: social, cultural, economic and environmental factors influencing the human use of animals worldwide; the expanding global demand for foods of animal origin; the value of livestock in economic development among the world's rural poor; the role of veterinarians in foreign assistance; imbalances in veterinary service delivery around the world; the relationship of animal health and production to global environmental change; the contribution of veterinary medicine to the preservation of biodiversity and the conservation of wildlife; and the impact of expanding international trade on food safety and the growing threat of foreign animal disease.
While the book is written primarily with a veterinary audience in mind,
the easy informative style makes the book interesting and accessible to anyone
interested in the relationship of animals to human society. Each chapter
includes maps, tables and photographs.
