In this way we come at the same time dure for theory elimination. to the border between science and nonscience: a Popper's naive falsifiability knows only one theory is scientific if it is falsifiable. It is thus way, the elimination of what is weak. The so­ not scientific to bring additional evidence to phisticated falsifiability, in contrast, knows only bear in vindication of the theory; the theory elimination in combination with the acceptance would thereby take on the character of an un­ of an alternative.

Dr. H.-O. Schmidtke in Berliner u. Münchener Tierärztliche Wochenschrift 106:10 (1993)

` ... eine wertvolle, vorzüglich illustrierte Anleitung. ... sympathisches Buch ... '
Prof.Dr. Peter F. Suter in Schweiz.Arch.Tierheilkunde 135:9 (1993)

` ... eine so detaillierte Beschreibung ... wie sie bisher nicht auf dem Markt war. ... die sehr gut gestalteten, schematischen Zeichnungen. ... mit dem vorliegenden Buch ein Erfahrungsschatz veröffentlicht, aus dem so mancher Praktiker noch schöpfen kann und der Studierenden unbedingt zu empfehlen ist. '
Deutsches Tierärzteblatt 9:1 (1993)

` Das Buch sollte in keiner Kleintierpraxis fehlen und sei auch jedem Lehrer in den klinischen Fächern empfohlen. '
Wiener Tierärztliche Monatsschrift 6 (1994)

` ... eine echte Hilfe ... pädagogisch so gut aufgebaut ...
So ist es allen zu empfehlen ... '
Tierärztliche Praxis 3 (1994)

` The book is well written, concise and yet very well directed. From my point of view, it should be required reading (and passing) before a studient is allowed to move on to the clinics and the responsibility for the care of patients.'
Stephen J. Ettinger, DVM, California Animal Hospital

` As a teacher of undergraduate veterinary students the text provides excellent information for them to learn how to complete and to understand the clinical examination of companion animals. As amature veterinarian the book reinforces and exposes all the `old' skills we used to learn. I commend it to undergraduate veterinary students and to veterinarians who wish to revise, relearn, or remind themselves of examining methods and procedures in small animal medicine. '
Boyd Jones in New Zeland Veterinary Journal
