Animal Industry

Globally, the way the animal production industry copes with infectious diseases is changing. The (excessive) use of antimicrobials is under debate and it is becoming standard practice to implement thorough biosecurity plans on farms to prevent the entry and spread of pathogenic micro-organisms. Not only in farm animal production, but also in facilities where companion animals are kept, including in veterinary practices and clinics, awareness of the beneficial implications of a good biosecurity plan has raised.

This 10th Anniversary Edition of Force: Animal Drawing: Animal Locomotion and Design Concepts for
Animators offers readers an enlarged and an enhanced selection of images that apply FORCE to animals.
With larger images, readers can better appreciate and learn how to bring their own animal illustrations to life.

‘After the recent pandemic, we desperately need comparative treatments of the politics, policies and programmes that affect human, animal and environmental health. Species of Contagion is a compelling history of the present, chronicling the recent regulation of biomedical research and its translation into medical practice. With its focus on xenotransplantation and zoonotic disease risks, the book contains valuable lessons for when the promise of monsters meets newly charged national and global health security frameworks.’
—Steve Hinchliffe, Professor of Human Geography, University of Exeter
