Download or read book Laboratory Primate Handbook written by Robert A. Jr. Whitey and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 1973-01-28 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laboratory Primate Handbook deals with the proper care and handling, treatment, and transportation of nonhuman primates to be used as research subjects in a laboratory environment. It considers the protection of human and animal health, identification, procurement, and husbandry, as well as compliance with federal regulations. Organized into 10 chapters, this volume begins with an overview of living primates and their classification, followed by procurement and production for biomedical research purposes. It then discusses housing and care of primates; preventive medicine and public health programs aimed at minimizing the hazards that may arise from diseases transmissible between nonhuman primates and man; and restraint and special techniques, including anesthetics and pre-anesthetics. The book also covers nutrition for primates and prevention of nutritional diseases, as well as generalized infectious diseases; parasites that cause disease in primates; and collection of physiological data on primates. Finally, the book looks at federal regulations and policies governing the humane care and treatment of nonhuman primates used in research. This book will benefit biomedical researchers involved in laboratory studies of nonhuman primates.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Undergraduate Psychology Education written by Dana Dunn and published by Oxford Library of Psychology. This book was released on 2015 with total page 953 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Undergraduate Psychology Education is dedicated to providing comprehensive coverage of teaching, pedagogy, and professional issues in psychology. The Handbook is designed to help psychology educators at each stage of their careers, from teaching their first courses and developing their careers to serving as department or program administrators. The goal of the Handbook is to provide teachers, educators, researchers, scholars, and administrators in psychology with current, practical advice on course creation, best practices in psychology pedagogy, course content recommendations, teaching methods and classroom management strategies, advice on student advising, and administrative and professional issues, such as managing one's career, chairing the department, organizing the curriculum, and conducting assessment, among other topics. The primary audience for this Handbook is college and university-level psychology teachers (at both two and four-year institutions) at the assistant, associate, and full professor levels, as well as department chairs and other psychology program administrators, who want to improve teaching and learning within their departments. Faculty members in other social science disciplines (e.g., sociology, education, political science) will find material in the Handbook to be applicable or adaptable to their own programs and courses.

Download or read book Physiological Diversity written by John Spicer and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-04-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecologists have always believed, at least to a certain extent, that physiological mechanisms serve to underpin ecological patterns. However, their importance has traditionally been at best underestimated and at worst ignored, with physiological variation being dismissed as either an irrelevance or as random noise/error. Spicer and Gaston make a convincing argument that the precise physiology does matter! In contrast to previous works which have attempted to integrate ecology and physiology, Physiological Diversity adopts a completely different and more controversial approach in tackling the physiology first before moving on to consider the implications for ecology. This is timely given the recent and considerable interest in the mechanisms underlying ecological patterns. Indeed, many of these mechanisms are physiological. This textbook provides a contemporary summary of physiological diversity as it occurs at different hierarchical levels (individual, population, species etc.), and the implications of such diversity for ecology and, by implication, evolution. It reviews what is known of physiological diversity and in doing so exposes the reader to all the key works in the field. It also portrays many of these studies in a completely new light, thereby serving as an agenda for, and impetus to, the future study of physiological variation. Physiological Diversity will be of relevance to senior undergraduates, postgraduates and professional researchers in the fields of ecology, ecological physiology, ecotoxicology, environmental biology and conservation. The book spans both terrestrial and marine systems.
Download or read book Anatomy Physiology for Speech Language and Hearing Seventh Edition written by J. Anthony Seikel and published by Plural Publishing. This book was released on 2023-10-06 with total page 865 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With many exciting enhancements and robust online resources, the seventh edition of Anatomy & Physiology for Speech, Language, and Hearing provides a solid foundation in anatomical and physiological principles relevant to the fields of speech-language pathology and audiology. This bestselling text is organized around the five “classic” systems of speech, language and hearing: the respiratory, phonatory, articulatory/resonatory, nervous, and auditory systems. Integrating clinical information with everyday experiences to reveal how anatomy and physiology relate to the speech, language, and hearing systems, the text introduces all the essential anatomy and physiology information in a carefully structured way, helping students to steadily build their knowledge and successfully apply it to clinical practice. Hundreds of dynamic, full-color illustrations and online lessons make the complex material approachable even for students with little or no background in anatomy and physiology. Key Features * 560+ figures and tables provide visual examples of the anatomy, processes, body systems, and data discussed. Photographs of human specimens provide a real-life look at the body parts and functions *Chapter pedagogy includes: *Learning objectives, call outs to related ANAQUEST lessons, bolded key terms, and chapter summaries *Clinical notes boxes relate topics directly to clinical experience to emphasize the importance of anatomy in clinical practice *Margin notes identify important terminology, root words, and definitions, that are highlighted in color throughout each chapter *“To summarize” sections provide a succinct listing of the major topics covered in a chapter or chapter section * Muscle tables describe the origin, course, insertion, innervation, and function of key muscles and muscle groups * Glossary with 2,000+ terms and definitions * Comprehensive bibliography in each chapter with 600+ references throughout the text * Multiple online appendices include an alphabetical listing of anatomical terms, useful combining forms, and listings of sensors and cranial nerves New to the Seventh Edition * Addition of clinical cases related to neurophysiology and hearing * Revised and updated physiology of swallowing includes discussion of postnatal development and aging effects of the swallowing mechanism and function * Brief discussion of the basics of genetics and trait transmission * Overview of prenatal development as it relates to the mechanisms of speech and hearing * Presentation of prenatal and postnatal development for each of the systems of speech and hearing, as well as the effects of aging on each system * Learning objectives have been added to the beginning of each chapter Please note that ancillary content (such as documents, audio, and video, etc.) may not be included as published in the original print version of this book.
