Saunders Veterinary Anatomy Coloring Book includes approximately 300 illustrations to study and color. The coloring book helps you memorize the anatomy content you need to know in both veterinary medicine and veterinary technology and gives you a fun way to review the information you have studied. All illustrations in the book are suitable for coloring and are of the highest quality, created by expert medical illustrators. Organized by body region, the book is divided into sections devoted to the head and neck; neck, back, and vertebral column; thorax; abdomen; pelvis; forlimb; and hindlimb. Numbered lead lines clearly identify structures to be colored and correspond to a numbered list beneath the illustration so you can easily visualize the veterinary anatomy. Plus, you can create your own "color code" using the numbered boxes provided for each illustration. Comprehensive veterinary anatomy coverage helps you reinforce your understanding of canine, feline, equine, porcine, ruminants, and avian anatomy. High quality illustrations make it easy for you to color in each anatomic region and review anatomic details. Self-study format provides a fun and interactive way to prepare for exams throughout your veterinary courses. Part of Elsevier's complete veterinary anatomy learning system, integrating core anatomy knowledge, engaging review, hands-on practice, and clinical application to give you a solid foundation for success!

Offering comprehensive coverage of core anatomic concepts, this respected, clinically oriented text is the definitive source for a complete understanding of veterinary anatomy. Gain the working anatomic knowledge that is crucial to your understanding of the veterinary basic sciences, as well as detailed information directly applicable to the care of specific animal species, including dogs, cats, horses, cows, pigs, sheep, goats, and birds. Each chapter includes a conceptual overview that describes the structure and function of an anatomic region, accompanied by new full-color dissection photographs that illustrate the relevance of anatomy to successful veterinary practice. Content is logically organized into two main sections - a general introduction to mammalian anatomy and a region-specific breakdown - to make studying more efficient and ensure greater understanding. Comprehensive, all-in-one coverage of all major species presents everything you need to master anatomic concepts in one text. Focus on essential anatomy of each species delivers just the right level of detail to help you establish a solid foundation for success. For the first time all images in the text appear in full color! This lifelike presentation clarifies anatomic concepts and structures in vibrant detail. Vivid full-color dissection photographs help you translate anatomic knowledge to clinical practice and confidently perform dissection procedures. A companion Evolve Resources website reinforces your understanding and helps you prepare for the NAVLEÒ board exam with 300 exam-style practice questions, a full-color electronic image collection, and more.

Animal Physiology presents all the branches of modern animal physiology with a strong emphasis on integration among physiological disciplines, ecology, and evolutionary biology. The book takes an entirely fresh approach to each topic. Its full colour illustration program includes many novel, visually effective features to help students learn. Each of the 28 chapters starts with a brief animal example to engage student interest and demonstrate the value of the material that will be learned. The book includes five entire chapters that apply students' newfound physiological knowledge to curiosity provoking and important topics, including diving by marine mammals, the mechanisms of navigation, and training/disuse effects in muscle. The book is committed to a comparative approach throughout. While mammalian physiology is consistently treated in depth, emphasis is also given to the other vertebrate groups, arthropods, molluscs, and as appropriate additional invertebrates. Concepts and integrative themes are emphasized while giving students the specifics they need. The whole animal is the principal focus of this book. The pages are filled with information on everything from knockout mice and enzyme chemistry to traditional organ physiology, phylogenetic analysis, and applications to human affairs. Always, the central organizing principle for the array of topics presented is to understand whole animals in the environments where they live. Concepts from chemistry, physics, and mathematics are explained so the book will be accessible to science students at the sophomore or higher level. Neurophysiological principles are developed clearly and carefully, to help students understand important concepts in sufficient depth without being overwhelming. Pedagogical aids include embedded summaries throughout chapters, lists of key terms, study questions, partially annotated reference lists, an extensive glossary, and appendices on topics such as units of measure and logarithms. For all three authors, teaching physiology to undergraduate students has been a lifelong priority. The opening three chapters provide background material on physiological basics, cell molecular concepts, transport of solutes and water, ecology, and evolutionary biology. The remaining chapters are organized into five sections: Food, Energy, and Temperature Integrating Systems Muscle and Movement Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, and Internal Transport Water, Salts, and Excretion

It also discusses the moral implications of dissecting dogs for canine gross anatomy, as well as the procedures and guidelines used in dissection.A list of figures and tables with page numbers is included in the front of the book.A list of references is provided in the back of the book to provide opportunities for further study.New CAT scans are provided to show internal anatomical features that can only be seen by this method.More than 300 illustrations - including new and updated drawings - depict each dissection procedure, step-by-step.Updated content includes recommendations from individuals in the global veterinary community.

Eckert Animal Physiology is the essential text for courses exploring the structure, function and evolution of animals. The new Fourth Edition , revised, redesigned and updated, builds on Roger Eckert's earlier success in establishing this book as a classic. Comparing examples and experimental data across a wide variety of animal groups, the authors emphasize the book's central theme: how the bodies of animals function and how evolution has adapted them to their environment. Clear, balanced and beautifully illustrated, this book sets the standard of excellence in the field. " Animal Physiology develops the major ideas in a simple and direct manner...Examples are selected from a broad spectrum of animal life, ranging from protozoa at one end to our species and other vertebrates at the other end ...the authors have produced a balanced and up-to-date treatment of animal function."
