Titre : Comparative animal physiologie Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Ladd Prosser, C., Auteur Editeur : W. B. Saunders company Année de publication : 1952 Importance : 888 p. Format : 24 cm. Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 573 Les différents systèmes physiologiques des animaux. Histologie et physiologie régionales Résumé : The objectives of comparative physiology are:
(1) to describe the diverse ways in which different kinds of animals meet their functional requirements;
(2) to elucidate evolutionary relationships of animals by" comparing physiological and biochemical characteristics;
(3) to provide the physiological basis of ecology, describing the mechanisms of tolerance of the stresses of particular habitats and the functional adaptations underlying extension of the range of a population;
(4) to call attention to animal preparations particularly suitable for demonstrating specified functions; and
(5) to lead to broad biological generalizations arising from the use of kind of animal as one experimental variable.
The present book attempts to serve two purposes:
(1) as a textbook for use in courses in comparative physiology at the advanced undergraduate early graduate level by students with some background in zoology and mammalian physiology;
(2) as a source book of sufficient detail and bibliography adequate to introduce investigators to particular branches of the subject.
No attempt is made to cover in detail the fields of cellular and mammalian physiology, although a certain amount from each is utilized; experience favors the separation of courses in comparative, cellular and mammalian physiology. The index is arranged to provide zoologists with material on the physiology of particular animal groups, and this book might well give the physiological material for courses in invertebrate zoology, protozoology, helminthology, entomology, ichthyology, herpetology, ornithology, and mamma logy.Comparative animal physiologie [texte imprimé] / Ladd Prosser, C., Auteur . - W.

Titre : Development of vertebrates Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Witschi, Emil, Auteur Editeur : W. B. Saunders company Année de publication : 1956 Importance : 588 p. Format : 24 cm Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 610 Sciences médicales. Médecine : classer les soins à domicile à 649.8, la médecine vétérinaire à 636.089 Résumé : The preset book called "Development of Vertebrates" is primarily written for premedical students and zoology majors who have completed a course in general biology.
Therefore, it aims at the presentation of development concepts on an advanced basis, while introducing the subject matter of vertebrate embryology.
Research methods are considered to the extent required for the understanding of the results of important investigative work.
The system of analytical staging employed in this book is furthermore intended to relieve the memory of students by making the book an easily usable guide to factual information.
The goal of an introductory course in embryology, toward which also this book aims to contribute, is a realization, by the student, that the development is a natural process which is open to scientific analysis by research methods not essentially different from those of the inorganic sciences.
A great care was given to the illustration of this book, since the teaching methods necessitates a liberal use of well labeled pictures.
It was decided not to employ a standard pattern of reproduction, but make use of different suitable techniques, from photography to line drawing.
The new figures were prepared by the author, often assisted by students and assistants.
This book includes 30 chapters divided into seven main sections, which are:
I. Introduction
II. Multiplication and maturation of Germ Cells
III. The start of Ontogenesis
IV. Amphibians
V. Fishes
VI. Birds
VII. mammals.Development of vertebrates [texte imprimé] / Witschi, Emil, Auteur . - W. B. Saunders company, 1956 . - 588 p. ; 24 cm.
