Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of Comparative Anatomy and Histology is aimed at the new rodent investigator as well as medical and veterinary pathologists who need to expand their knowledge base into comparative anatomy and histology. It guides the reader through normal mouse and rat anatomy and histology using direct comparison to the human. The side by side comparison of mouse, rat, and human tissues highlight the unique biology of the rodents, which has great impact on the validation of rodent models of human disease. - Offers the only comprehensive source for comparing mouse, rat, and human anatomy and histology through over 1500 full-color images, in one reference work - Enables human and veterinary pathologists to examine tissue samples with greater accuracy and confidence - Teaches biomedical researchers to examine the histologic changes in their model rodents - Experts from both human and veterinary fields take readers through each organ system in a side-by-side comparative approach to anatomy and histology - human Netter anatomy images along with Netter-style rodent images

Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Placental Bed Disorders written by Robert Pijnenborg and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-06-03 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is now recognized that defective placentation in the human is a cause of many pregnancy complications, such as spontaneous abortion, preterm labor and delivery, pre-eclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction, fetal death and abruptio placenta. These clinical disorders can often have long-term consequences into adulthood, causing cardiovascular disease, obesity and diabetes for the newborn as well as an increased risk of premature death in the mother. This is the first book to be entirely focused on the placental bed, bringing together the results of basic and clinical research in cell biology, immunology, endocrinology, pathology, genetics and imaging to consolidate in a single, informative source for investigators and clinicians. Its core aim is to explore new approaches and improve current clinical practice. This is essential reading for clinicians in obstetric, cardiovascular and reproductive medicine.

Book excerpt: Stems, of various sizes and shapes, are involved in most of the organic processes and interactions of plants, ranging from support, transport, and storage to development and protection. The stem itself is a crucially important intermediary: it links above- and below ground organs-connecting roots to leaves. An international team of leading researchers vividly illustrate that stems are more than pipes, more than simple connecting and supporting structures; rather stems are critical, anatomically distinct structures of enormous variability. It is, to an unappreciated extent, this variability that underpins both the diversity and the success of plants in myriad ecosystems. Plant Stems will be a valuable resource on form/function relationships for researchers and graduate-level students in ecology, evolutionary biology, physiology, development, genetics, agricultural sciences, and horticulture as they unravel the mechanisms and processes that allow organisms and ecosystems to function. - Syntheses of structural, physiological, and ecological functions of stems - Multiple viewpoints on how stem structure relates to performance - Highlights of major areas of plant biology long neglected
