Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Text-Book in General Zoology The arrangement, presentation, and selection of the subject-matter in the present text-book have been determined by the experience gained from the labors of ten years in the class room with the grade of students for whom this work is intended. In fact, the text is simply a more orderly discussion of the same subjects in the same sequence that have been presented for ten years to successive classes in elementary zoology. The author, in his work with these students, has attempted to interpret, with much thought and care, the zoologi cal demands of such students according to their average receptivities and practical needs rather than by any preconceived ideas of what constitutes a knowledge of zoology. The aim has been to create an interest in nature, beget an acquaintance with the lives, habits, and activities of animals, train the powers of observation, quicken the judgment, widen the horizon of environment, augment the capabili ties for independent thinking, and inculcate an unswerving regard for the truth. The instruction that a potential citizen receives in zoology must give more than a mere acquaintance with animals. If the study of this science does not accomplish the objects enumerated in the fore going paragraph, it loses its highest value as an educational subject in the curricula of the common schools. That the study of zoology may fulfill its function as a subject of mental discipline and, at the same time, give to that large majority of pupils who become ordinary citizens an acquaintance with animals, the author has been led, from his experience in teaching, to include in a zoological course a goodly amount of natural history and comparative anatomy, a large share of animal ecology, economic zoology and physiology, a moderate amount of classification, embryology, and paleontology, something of the history of zoology, and, through all, a persistent presentation of the relationships of animals and of the manner in which they have been evolved. To present the foregoing divisions of the subject-matter of zoology in their proper relations and proportions is indeed a difficult task, and one which, at best, is open to criticism; but it is hoped that the pupils who follow the course here laid down will gain an acquaint ance with animals and acquire an interest in them, and, at the same time, receive that mental discipline which they would derive from the pursuit of other studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Textbook of General Zoology An introduction to the science of Zoology may be secured in a variety Of ways. One may become interested in the life Of field and stream as a hunter and fisherman, or as an amateur naturalist through the collection Of specimens. The farmer's son who watches the insects that devour the crops and who protects insect-eating birds may become something of a zoologist unawares. The boy or girl who studies Anatomy and Physiology in school becomes famil iar with structure and function as found in the bodies of higher animals. A high-school course in Zoology or in Biology Offers a more comprehensive introduction. Whatever may have been the student's previous experience with zoological science, it is desirable that he make the most Of it throughout the study outlined in the present volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Text-Book of Zoology: For Schools and Colleges On the other hand, the objects which belong to the animal and vegetable kingdoms differ from those which are comprised in the mineral kingdom in the following points: a. They are composed of few chemical elements, of which carbon, hydro gen, oxygen, and nitrogen, are the most important; and these elements are combined to form complex organic compounds, which always contain a large proportion of water, are very nu stable, and are prone to spontaneous decomposition. 6. They are composed of diverse or heterogeneous parts, which have usually more or less definite relations to one another. These heterogeneous but related parts are termed organs, and the objects possessing them are said to be organized. Some of the lowest forms of animals have bodies composed of so uni form a substance that they cannot be said to be organized, as they exhibit no definite organs. This exception, however, does not affect the general value of this distinction. 0. They are always more or less definite in shape, presenting concave and convex surfaces, and being bounded by curved lines. 07. When they increase in size, or grow, they do so, not by the addi tion of particles from the outside, but by the reception of foreign matter into their interior and its assimilation there (technically called intussusception e. They invariably pass through certain periodic changes in a definite and dis coverable order; these changes constituting life. They are subject to the same physical and chemical laws as those which govern dead matter, but the living body is the seat of some thing in virtue of which it can override the physical laws which enslave mere dead matter. The living body, so long as it is a living body, is the seat of energy, and can overcome the primary law of the inertia of matter. It has certain relations with the outer world other than the merely passive ones of dead matter. However humble it may be, and even if it be permanently rooted to one place, some part or other of every living body possesses the power of spontaneous and inde pendent motionma power possessed by nothing that is dead. In the higher animals the relations of the living body to dead nature become still further complicated, and their mastery over the physical forces becomes more and more pronounced.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from College Zoology This book is intended to serve as a text for beginning students in universities and colleges, or for students who have already taken a course in general biology and wish to gain a more com prehensive View of the animal kingdom. It differs from many of the college textbooks of zoology now on the market in several important respects: (1) the animals and their organs are not only described, but their functions are pointed out; (2) the ani mals described are in most cases native species; and (3) the relations of the animals to man are emphasized. Besides serv ing as a textbook, it is believed that this book will be of interest to the general reader, since it gives a bird's-eye View of the entire animal kingdom as we know it at the present time. Within the past decade there has been a tendency for teachers of zoology to pay less attention to morphology and more to physiology. As a prominent morphologist recently said.

Download or read book Text Book of Vertebrate Zoology Classic Reprint written by J. S. Kingsley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-18 with total page 464 pages. 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.

This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Text-Book of Agricultural Zoology The subject treated in the following chapters, Agricultural Zoology, has perhaps been more neglected in England than any other branch of science applied to agriculture: even the name itself is hardly at present understood. It is true, indeed, that the labours of Curtis, and in later years of Miss Ormerod, have developed one branch of economic zoology - namely, the part played by insects in causing disease amongst animals and plants; it is true also that some of our veterinary surgeons have done excellent work on the other parasitic diseases of animals; but there remains a vast portion of the subject that has neither gained the attention of English scientific men nor been summarised in an English text-book. Agricultural Zoology treats of the life-histories, the habits, the peculiarities of all the animals which affect for good or for evil our stock and crops, whether on the farm or in the garden, and the structure and development of domestic animals. Parasitism plays an important part in this subject, especially in the worms; but the economic effects of parasites are not confined to worms the parasitic insects, the minute protozoa, equally take their annual and preventable toll of our flocks and herds.
