Mammalian Anatomy

Provides details on the anatomy of fourteen mammals, including dolphins, chimpanzees, squirrels, and humans, and describes the musculoskeletal, circulatory, nervous, digestive, and reproductive systems of each animal.

A preparation for human and comparative anatomy. The Skeleton of the cat its muscular attachment, growth, and variations compared with the skeleton of man. With over five hundred original illustrations, and many tables.

The authors of this book have set out to give an account of the anatomy of the mammal and especially the cat, not only from the structural but also from the functional aspect. This approach has been used by the authors over a period of twenty years and they have found that it has been stimulating to the student. Right from the beginning of his biological training the student is encouraged to correlate form and function so that if at a later period he decides to become an anatomist or mammalian physiologist, he has a firm foundation on which to base his subsequent knowledge. The book is divided into fourteen chapters. The first chapter defines common terms and also gives a useful introduction to histology. The next twelve chapters give adequate, yet not too detailed accounts of the different systems. The fourteenth chapter gives instructions for the dissection of the cat. This book is attractively laid out and well illustrated, many of the illustrations being in colour. As a text-book for students beginning the study of mammalian zoology, this book can be highly recommended.

Looks closely at the biological systems of 14 animals representing the diversity of the mammal famiy.

This full-color dissection guide is intended for students taking Mammalian Anatomy, Comparative Anatomy, General Biology, or Anatomy & Physiology courses and contains 175 photographs plus many full-color illustrations. The combination of a good anatomy text, clear discussions of dissection techniques, and well-executed photographs and illustrations makes this a definitive book in biology curricula.
