Teised raamatud teemal:
This is a major revision and redesign of a classic work in the field of veterinary medicine first published by Cornell University Press in 1933. For the Twelfth Edition of Dukes' Physiology of Domestic Animals, William O. Reece has overseen the writing of an essentially new book that retains what was best about its predecessors. Long a standard text for veterinary practitioners and other professionals who seek to refresh their knowledge of particular subjects, Dukes' Physiology of Domestic Animals will now appeal to a new generation of students of veterinary medicine and animal science and to biomedical researchers. Section editors known for their scientific expertise and teaching skill oversaw the book's six main sections: The Body Fluids and Blood; Renal and Respiratory Function and Acid-Base Balance; The Cardiovascular System; Digestion, Absorption, and Metabolism; Endocrinology, Reproduction, and Lactation; and Nervous System, Special Senses, Muscle, and Temperature Regulation. This edition includes a complete listing of each chapter's contents immediately after the chapter head, study questions that highlight the major concepts of each major subsection, self-evaluation exercises at the end of the chapters, suggestions for further reading, and a comprehensive index.

Arvustused

"The 12th edition continues the long and proud tradition of this classic textbook in veterinary physiology, which was first published in 1933. It provides the benchmark text with a comprehensive presentation of the physiology of domestic animals that is suitable for undergraduate students, as a practitioner reference and a basic resource for research scientists. The target audience remains undergraduate veterinary science students who will value the book for its thorough, precise, detailed explanations of both mammalian and avian function... A copy of Dukes' Physiology of Domestic Animals is a must for veterinary students and practitioners who need to extend and deepen their understanding of function and dysfunction. It offers an excellent balance of companion and production animal content that makes it a valuable reference for large, small, and mixed practice ... It remains the authoritative text for veterinary physiology."-Rosanne Taylor, Australian Veterinary Journal, July 2005 "A serious text on physiology that will be of considerable interest to animal science and veterinary students... Its usefulness as a reference source for problem-based learning courses and the presentation of cases is clear... Overall, this is a good investment as a physiology text for students."-Christopher Price, Canadian Veterinary Journal, April 2005
