Advances in drug development over the past 50 years for human diseases have facilitated an increase in prescribed drugs in veterinary medicine. This textbook reorients the general principles of pharmacology from humans to animals to better engage veterinary students and practitioners. It explores the general principles of pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics before applying them to clinical pharmacology, dose calculations, and toxicity. Terminology is presented simply, and drug examples are omitted to maintain clarity and focus.

This edition of Romeo and Juliet was edited by students for students. We believe that reliably edited versions of the play should be available for free online. But we wanted ours to be easy to get in other ways as well. The editors—Oregon State University students who remember, far better than their professors, what it was like to read the play for the first time—carefully considered every pronoun, punctuation mark, and footnote. Our goal: to make a friendly, confidence-building edition that supported classroom activities at the high school and college level.

This second edition of New Media Futures anchors a foundational course in a New Media Program, which treats social research, media management, and media production as central to media education. While maintaining an emphasis on aesthetics, design, and production, this updated edition situates new media within broader questions of human behavior and disciplinary practice. The book examines intersections between communication and adjacent fields, and engages emerging debates in attention, information, artificial intelligence, and future-oriented methods. Designed to support intellectually-adventurous engagement, the text encourages readers to connect concepts across domains while developing a sensibility about communication’s role in shaping possible futures.

Welcome to the wonderful world of microbiology! Yay! So. What is microbiology?

If we break the word down it translates to “the study of small life,” where the small life refers to microorganisms or microbes. But who are the microbes? And how small are they?
