4.0 out of 5 stars An accessible reference of general animal physiology, 13 Nov 2000
By A Customer
This textbook provides an interesting overview of physiological processes in the animal kingdom. As a student of both animal biology and physiology, I found it useful during the first and second years of my degree course. I would say, though, that it is more suited to animal biologists with a passing interest in physiology or for looking up key points, rather than someone studying physiology in detail.

The layout is easy-to-use and, with plenty of diagrams and colour, very clear and understandable.

Well-recommended if it suits your needs.
