Hyman's Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy
Author: Libbie Henrietta Hyman
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226870137
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 806
Book Description
The purpose of this book, now in its third edition, is to introduce the morphology of vertebrates in a context that emphasizes a comparison of structire and of the function of structural units. The comparative method involves the analysis of the history of structure in both developmental and evolutionary frameworks. The nature of adaptation is the key to this analysis. Adaptation of a species to its environment, as revealed by its structure, function, and reproductive success, is the product of mutation and natural selection–the process of evolution. The evolution of structure and function, then, is the theme of this book which presents, system by system, the evolution of structure and function of vertebrates. Each chapter presents the major evolutionary trends of an organ system, with instructions for laboratory exploration of these trends included so the student can integrate concept with example.

Comparative Veterinary Anatomy
Author: James A. Orsini
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0128121084
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 1494
Book Description
Comparative Veterinary Anatomy: A Clinical Approach describes the comprehensive, clinical application of anatomy for veterinarians, veterinary students, allied health professionals and undergraduate students majoring in biology and zoology. The book covers the applied anatomy of dogs, cats, horses, cows and other farm animals, with a short section on avian/exotics, with a focus on specific clinical anatomical topics. The work improves the understanding of basic veterinary anatomy by making it relevant in the context of common clinical problems. This book will serve as a single-source reference on the application of important anatomical structures in a clinical setting. Students, practitioners and specialists will find this information easy-to-use and well-illustrated, thus presenting an accurate representation of essential anatomical structures that relates to real-life clinical situations in veterinary medicine. - Presents multiple species, garnering a broad audience of interest for veterinarians, specialists, professional students, and undergraduate students majoring in the biological sciences - Contains detailed layered color figures at the beginning of each different species section in addition to numerous figures throughout - Focuses on clinically oriented anatomy - Correlates gross anatomy, radiology, ultrasound, CT, MRI and nuclear medicine in clinical case presentations

ELEMENTS OF COMPARATIVE ANATOMY. BY CARL GEGENBAUR PROFESSOR OF ANATOMY AID DlRECTOR OF TUB ANATOMICAL INSTITUTE AT HXIDXLBEBCt. TRANSLATED BY F. JEFFREY BELL, B. A., MAGDALBIC COLLEGE, OXPORD. THE TRANSLATION REVISED AND A PREFACE WRITTEN BY E. RAY LANKESTER, M. A., F. R. S., FELLOW OFEXETER COLLEGE, OXFORD, AND PROFESSOR OF ZOOLOGY 1878. PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION. Our knowledge has been so much increased in extent and exactness in almost every department of Comparative Anatomy since the time when I converted into the first edition of this smaller manual the Grundriss that the publication of a second edition hardly seemed an easy task. Nevertheless, I gladly undertook it, for I had observed so much new evidence of the importance of the doctrine of development in anatomical inquiry The road along which science may travel forward success fully seems indeed to be growing easier, yet the distance which we have made is but short in comparison with that which lies in front of us, and far beyond our view. Every question solved leads again to fresh problems, and renders unstable even what seemed to have taken a definite form. There are, therefore, great difficulties in giving such a comprehensive presentation of the subject as a text-book ought to supply I have tried as much as possible to evade these difficulties where I have been unable to overcome them. Much remains unaltered, because recent investigations appear to demand fundamental changes, the concrete expression of which cannot be immediately taken in hand. I have somewhat modified the arrangement of the matter. I can hardly be blamed for separating the Brachiopoda from the Mollusca, and treating them as forming an independent phylum. Nor indeed is the change a real one, for even in my Grundziige I drew especial attention to the great difference that obtained between them and the other Mollusca The Tuuicata have been treated in tho same way, but this does not require any apology at the present date. By treating the subject more concisely I have been able to increase the real matter to a certain extent, without enlarging tho size of tho book. I have, of course, only dealt with what has seemed to me to be of capital importance many, and even important, details have been omitted, owing to tho limits imposed by the aim of the book. I have endeavoured to correct some previous mistakes and to supply omissions. If any such have been retained, or have newly crept in, I shall bo fairly judged, I know, by anatomists, who will remember the vast extent of our science and tho object of this work. I hope that I have satisfied them, and if I have my toil is well repaid. Heidelberg, November, 1877. O. Gegenbaur. PREFACE TO THE ENGLISH TRANSLATION. IT is a great pleasure to me to be able to place in the hands of my pupils in Oxford and London an English translation of Professor IEGENBAURS Grundriss der Vergleieheiiden Anatomie. I have to thank the energy and industry of Mr. JEFFREY J ELL, of Magdalen College, Oxford now one of the staff of the British Museum, for the translation which lie undertook and carried through at my request, when I found that my time was too fully occupied with other work to allow of my completing it myself within a sufficiently short period from the date-of publication of the German work. My share of the present work has therefore consisted in a careful revision of the MS. and proof-sheets, which has been by no means a mere formality, but enables me to give the assurance that the original work is faithfully rendered in the translation. The chapter on the Tunicata I took occasion to translate myself. That Professor GEGENBAURS work will be of great service to those English students who do not already read German cannot be doubted...

Your Inner Fish
Author: Neil Shubin
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0307377164
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
The paleontologist and professor of anatomy who co-discovered Tiktaalik, the “fish with hands,” tells a “compelling scientific adventure story that will change forever how you understand what it means to be human” (Oliver Sacks). By examining fossils and DNA, he shows us that our hands actually resemble fish fins, our heads are organized like long-extinct jawless fish, and major parts of our genomes look and function like those of worms and bacteria. Your Inner Fish makes us look at ourselves and our world in an illuminating new light. This is science writing at its finest—enlightening, accessible and told with irresistible enthusiasm.
