Students everywhere are fortunate to partake in this educational experiment. The Pathophysiology of the Digestive System textbook is the work of a number of professionals and educators including R.A. Bowen DVM PhD, Department of Biomedical Sciences at Colorado State University; Laura Austgen DVM PhD and Melissa Rouge DVM.
As you might suspect based on the contributors, this text on the digestive system covers both humans and animals; the animals are broken down further into herbivores and birds. They also had an interesting goal of providing a textbook that could be used by both beginning and advanced students. With that goal in mind, the authors request that students provide constructive criticism and suggestions to improve the materials.
