第三版的《BSAVA犬貓腎臟與泌尿學手冊》涵蓋了臨床與實驗室常見的問題、治療技術、以及本領域重要疾病症候群的臨床處置。新引入的章節更討論了全身性疾病對腎病診斷和／或治療複雜化所造成的影響，包括：心血管－腎症候群、高血壓、及甲狀腺機能亢進症。此外，在新的章節還包括：慢性腎病的早期檢測、慢性腎病的鈣磷恆定評估、與泌尿道疾病的遺傳基礎。前一版的章節亦已更新，以反映當前的共識。最後，本書還加入了病例範例、完整的參考表和流程圖，便於讀者參考。BSAVA系列叢書，自個人踏入臨床工作30年來，一直是書架上必備的參考讀物。這本《BSAVA犬貓腎臟和泌尿學手冊》（BSAVA Manual of Canine and Feline Nephrology and Urology），文字簡潔，內容豐富，自然也是不可或缺的速查工具書。處理小動物內科疾病，尤其是內分泌疾病和心血管疾病，當然不能忽略了其與泌尿系統的交互作用與影響，所以本書對於這個議題分別在第16章、第17章、以及第19章都有很深入的討論。另外，骨骼肌肉系統與外科手術的疼痛管理，非固醇類抗炎症藥物（NSAID）扮演了非常重要的角色，因此NSAID的腎臟毒性以及有骨關節問題的腎病動物之疼痛管理，在第20章也有很深入的剖析。當然，泌尿系統的傳統議題，如急性腎損傷與慢性腎病、尿石症的內外科處置、蛋白尿與絲球體病、腎臟替代治療、貓下泌尿道症狀、尿失禁、以及泌尿系統臨床表現與檢查等等，本書主編也邀請了世界各個領域知名的專家學家撰寫相關章節，相信這些豐富又精闢的內容，對於獸醫學系學生而言，是建立泌尿系統疾病背景知識（background knowledge）的基石，日後進入臨床工作，特別是在這個需時時查閱文獻，形成前景知識（foreground knowledge）的實證時代，本書各章末豐富的推薦閱讀與參考文獻，個人也非常鼓勵獸醫師與獸醫學生不要忽略。
