Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an introduction to comparative anatomy with a focus on chordates. Chordates are animals that make up the most successful and largest group in the animal kingdom. They stand out thanks to their internal supporting rods (notochord), hollow nerve cords, muscular tails, and pharyngeal gill slits. The book guides the reader through five model groups: the lamprey, the skate, the lizard, the pigeon, and the rabbit. These animals vividly illustrate the broad diversity found within chordates. True to the book's comparative approach, the anatomy of each animal is laid bare by removing the skin, dissecting muscles, and observing internal organs, showcasing the connections and differences within this diverse group. The author's clear and accessible prose guides the reader through each dissection, highlighting key anatomical features that vary across species. The result is a comprehensive exploration of chordate evolution and anatomy, providing a solid foundation for further study in zoology and the biological sciences.
