Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe:

Today's condensed biology courses teach students little about invertebrates, just when we are discovering how genetic studies can reveal evolutionary relationships. This book is distinctive in meeting both these needs clearly and simply at an elementary level. It springs from forty years' experience of teaching students.

Críticas:

'Anyone who is concerned about biological diversity and the current extinction crisis realizes that we desperately need to train more people in invertebrate biology ... I strongly recommend this book to all undergraduates who are interested in biology: it provides a lucid, yet comprehensive, introduction to a significant proportion of the diversity of life on Earth.' Trends in Parasitology

'Janet Moore's An Introduction to the Invertebrates offers something different: a smartly annotated, comprehensive outline. The writing is clear, simple and to the point. The chapters are organised taxonomically, but within the chapters the topic heads are broad zoological questions, instead of the drearily repetitive '... nervous system, excretory system, reproduction, development, etc ...'.' Invertebrata

'A very accessible book that will serve as an excellent overview of the invertebrate animals.' Wildlife Activist
