Vertebrates: Comparative Anatomy, Function, Evolution

by Kenneth V. Kardong

This one-semester text is designed for an upper-level majors course. Vertebrates features a unique emphasis on function and evolution of vertebrates, complete anatomical detail, and excellent pedagogy. Vertebrate groups are organized phylogenetically, and their systems discussed within such a context. Morphology is foremost, but the author has developed and integrated an understanding of function and evolution into the discussion of anatomy of the various systems.

Tive que ler pra faculdade, faço biomedicina. É bem útil pra cadeira (anatomia comparada), mas é meio massivo e chatinho. Vale a pena se precisar de apoio, mas ler todo ele no meio de uma faculdade é muita demanda.

A wonderful book for nature nerds! This is a textbook, but a very interesting one. Thsi book will help you see the animals in your world in a new light! Fantastic!

Super in-depth text that was informative. However, for the course I was taking, it was kind of unnecessary unless I was really confused by the course notes, or interested in finding out the details. All black and white, if I recall correctly.
