Summary, Etc. Note: |
Review: "This is the first in-depth textbook dealing solely with the comparative anatomy and physiology of exotic species. It is specifically written with the veterinary practitioner in mind to give a better understanding of the functioning of exotic species. It is heavily illustrated with clear line diagrams, radiographs and colour illustrations."--Jacket. |
