| Synopsis: |
Vertebrate Endocrinology represents more than just a treatment of the endocrine system-it integrates hormones with other chemical bioregulatory agents not classically included with the endocrine system. It provides a complete overview of the endocrine system of vertebrates by first emphasizing the mammalian system as the basis of most terminology and understanding of endocrine mechanisms and then applies that to non-mammals. The serious reader will gain both an understanding of the intricate relationships among all of the body systems and their regulation by hormones and other bioregulators, but also a sense of their development through evolutionary time as well as the roles of hormones at different stages of an animal's life cycle. Includes new full color format includes over 450 full color, completely redrawn imageFeatures a companion web site hosting all images from the book as PPT slides and .jpeg filesPresents completedly updated and revitalized content with new chapters, such as Endocrine Disrupters and Behavioral EndocrinologyOffers new clinical correlation vignettes throughout |
