The Publishing House

Le Point Vétérinaire Italie Srl (PVI) specializes in veterinarian and agri-zootechnical fields, gaining many operators confidence and becoming one of the leader publishers and reference point for the whole home market.

Mission

Main activity involves spreading – via magazines, books and papers - the latest scientific acquisitions in the agri-zootechnical and veterinarian fields, to bear out professional men in their everyday work.
It is in practice a real distance vocational training programme activity, recently making use of new technologies such as a specific web platform.

Near this leading aim, the Publishing House places its oganization and resources at veterinary surgeons, breeders and students’ disposal to
create services being able to assist them in new and fascinating challenges they have to face up.

History

We have been present in Italy since 1992, when two historic magazines were aquired: "Summa" and "Professione allevatore".
The first is a veterinarian monthly magazine, now separated into two different versions each devoted to a specific line: “Summa Small Animals” and “Summa Large Animals”.
The second, “Professione Allevatore” is devoted instead to bovine breeding.

"La Settimana Veterinaria", the first weekly professional magazine for the Italian veterinary surgeon, was born in 1994 together with the "Dizionario del Medicinale Veterinario", an everyday reference tool now ran to seventh edition.

Among its catalogue’s titles the Publishing House also numbers "Allevare - il Canile moderno", a quarterly magazine for dog breeders, "Veterinaria Pratica Equina", a quarterly horse magazine, "Professione Suinicoltore", a monthly magazine devoted to swine breeders, and "Professione Avicunicoltore", for poultry and rabbit breeders.

"L'Agenda del Veterinario" is a peculiar publishing activity.

Finally, Le Point Vétérinaire Italie supervises "Argomenti S.I.Ve.M.P.", official organ of the Italian Public Health Veterinary Surgeons’ Union, and "Praxis", the historical Bayer magazine.

The bookstore

In the book field, Le Point Vétérinaire Italie boasts a full catalogue of new, “historic” and forthcoming titles (click on “PVI books and papers” icon).

Besides specific veterinarian volumes, the production also includes two series of practical manuals for breeders and – lately – the series “PVI Accademia”, with universitary texts for the course of degree in Veterinary Medicine and related.
