Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Text Book of Vertebrate Zoology Within recent years the laboratory method has become the basis of instruction in every science. The student is expected to find out a certain number of fundamental facts directly from nature, but while this has in itself great value as a training in observation, the fullest benefit of the study is not obtained unless there be a comprehension of the bearings of the facts observed. Observation and uncorrellated facts do not make a science. Attention can be directed to the relations and significance of the facts ascertained in the laboratory by means of lectures, but a somewhat extended experience has shown that the average student needs something more than his lecture notes, at least when beginning any subject. The present volume is intended to supplement both lectures and laboratory work, and to place in concise form the more important facts and generalizations concerning the vertebrates. It is also hoped that it may have some value for students of medicine in explaining many peculiarities of the structure of man which seem meaningless unless viewed in the light of comparative morphology. When once their meaning is comprehended it is easy to remember them. The first part of the volume is devoted to an outline of the morphology of vertebrates based upon embryology. This treatment has been adopted, since the author believes that in this way the bearings of the facts can be most clearly shown and most easily remembered. The remainder of the volume presents an outline of the classification of vertebrates, a subject which, in recent years, has been too much ignored in college work. Here the fossils are included as well as the recent forms, since the existing fauna must be studied in the light of the past. Numerous generic names have been mentioned without characterization; they have been inserted in order that the student may be able to ascertain the relationships of the forms he may find mentioned in collateral reading.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Course in Vertebrate Zoology: A Guide to the Dissection and Comparative Study of Vertebrate Animals The plan of this course is similar to that of the Invertebrate Zoology published by the author three years ago. Its principal aim is to furnish a guide to the dissection of types of the most important groups of vertebrates. The directions are practical in character, and are designed to be in sufficient detail to enable the student to carry on his work intelligently and profitably and with the least possible waste of time and material. Vertebrates are large animals with complex systems of organs, and it is impossible for a young student to dissect them in the best manner unless he receives full instructions at every important step. To give such instructions is the main purpose of this book. The course seeks also to keep the morphological relations of the various organs and systems of organs constantly before the mind and to make the study a comparative one. Each of the dissections is complete in itself and is not depend ent upon any of the others. The teacher may thus assign to his class such of the dissections as he wishes, and in the order he wishes. The directions do not contain exhaustive descriptions of the animals dissected, the completeness of the description in each case being made dependent upon the pedagogical ends aimed at, and upon the time ordinarily at the disposal of the student. The organs which have been treated in the least detail are the muscles, in most cases only the superficial ones being described, and they not minutely. A teacher will find it an easy matter, however, to extend the study of the muscles if he wishes. The particular order in which the various systems of organs of each animal are studied is the one which experience has shown will accomplish the desired result with the greatest economy of time and material.

Book excerpt: Secon and third paragraphs of Preface: The book is avowedly dynamic in tone, emphasizing the physiological, developmental, phylogenetic, and ecological aspects of vertebrates. Structural features must of course be dealt with extensively, but purely anatomical details are as a rule subordinated to physiologic and evolutionary considerations. The vertebrates are, moreover, viewed not merely as a group of animals belonging to the present, but, historically, as a very ancient assemblage of related forms, that arose from simple beginnings many millions of years ago and have passed through mahy vicissitudes in volved in the mighty world changes of ancient times. Hence more than the usual attention is given to earlier chapters in the ancestral history of the vertebrate classes, chapters that are often of more dramatic interest than those of the present and that give to the student a new conception of the significance of modern end-products of evolution which, in themselves, are often relatively unattratve and devoid of interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The biological discipline that focuses on the study of vertebrate animals is known as vertebrate zoology. The animals with a backbone such as amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals collectively called as tetrapods, are known as vertebrate animals. Vertebrates include various groups such as jawless fishes, jawed vertebrates that include the cartilaginous fishes, and bony fishes. Vertebrate zoology can be further divided into various sub-fields including ichthyology, mammalogy, ornithology, herpetology and batrachology. These sub-divisions respectively study the fishes, mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians. Different approaches, evaluations and studies on vertebrate zoology have been included in this book. It attempts to understand the multiple branches that fall under the discipline of vertebrate zoology. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
