The most trusted and best-selling textbook on the diverse forms and
fascinating lives of vertebrate animals. Covering crucial topics
from morphology and behavior to ecology and zoogeography, Donald
Linzey's popular textbook, Vertebrate Biology, has long been
recognized as the most comprehensive and readable resource on
vertebrates for students and educators. Thoroughly updated with the
latest research, this new edition discusses taxa and topics such as
* systematics and evolution * zoogeography, ecology, morphology,
and reproduction * early chordates * fish, amphibians, reptiles
(inclusive of birds), and mammals * population dynamics * movement
and migration * behavior * study methods * extinction processes *
conservation and management For the first time, 32 pages of color
images bring these fascinating organisms to life. In addition, 5
entirely new chapters have been added to the book, which cover *
restoration of endangered species * regulatory legislation
affecting vertebrates * wildlife conservation in a modern world *
climate change * contemporary wildlife management Complete with
review questions, updated references, appendixes, and a glossary of
well over 300 terms, Vertebrate Biology is the ideal text for
courses in zoology, vertebrate biology, vertebrate natural history,
and general biology. Donald W. Linzey carefully builds theme upon
theme, concept upon concept, as he walks students through a
plethora of topics. Arranged logically to follow the most widely
adopted course structure, this text will leave students with a full
understanding of the unique structure, function, and living
patterns of all vertebrates.
