This bestselling work provides a solid introduction to the functional anatomy of domestic animals for veterinary and animal science students, as well as a reference for those in the field. The author discusses principles, phenomena, and mechanisms, supported by concrete examples that provide an understanding that can be readily applied to the raising and caring for animals with proper regard for their welfare. He covers morphology, electrophysiology, endocrinology, myology, metabolism, cell growth and development, and reproductive mechanisms, clearly delineating normal and abnormal function.…mehr
