This book is entitled as Handbook of Laboratory animal Handling and Management provides basic information about handling, restraining during experimentation and management practices. Every drug discovery and development of therapeutic medicines and vaccines have been possible only on animal models so it is very important us to know the basic information regarding handling and management of laboratory animals before the start of any scientific Experiments. This book also gives information about IAEC (Institutional Animal Ethics Committee) guidelines and CPCSEA (Committee for the Purpose of Control Supervision of Experiments on Laboratory Animals) norms regarding use of Laboratory animals in the research studies. I am sure that this book would be helpful for the post graduate students in the medical sciences and for the veterinary Graduate students.
