Introduction to Veterinary Anatomy & Physiology

This book, a practical volume with many drawings, diagrams and photographs, provides a good overview for those wanting to know more about the anatomy and physiology of pets. This second, revised edition has new features, including an entirely new chapter on horses.
The emphasis of this book is on the anatomy and physiology of dogs and cats. In addition to general information about cell biology, there are separate chapters on the various organ systems: skeletal, muscular, nervous, endocrine, circulatory, digestive and reproductive. The second part of the book covers exotic animals. Chapters are devoted to birds, mammals, reptiles and fish, and horses. The two appendices provide, as such a textbook often does, an introduction to anatomical terminology, and multiple choice questions and answers.
