for under $60 before shipping: <http://www.us.elsevierhealth.com/product.jsp?sid=EHS_US_BS-SPE-409&isbn=9781416066217> and Amazon for under $70 after shipping so you can compare the shipping cost above and see which is better for you: <http://www.amazon.com/Ferrets-Rabbits-Rodents-Clinical-Medicine/dp/1416066217> Both are better than the pre-publication order price I had and are very affordable prices compared to most vet texts. The second edition is available on digital copy for more, so hold out for the third edition to be available on digital if you want to add an electronic version. You can check in Elsevier Pageburststore and in the Amazon Kindle Store periodically for that. The third also has recent veterinary info on rabbits, rodents, sugar gliders, and hedgehogs.
