The Sixth Edition, like the earlier editions, is a must for anyone interested in comparative physiology, poultry science, veterinary medicine, and related fields. This volume establishes the standard for those who need the latest and best information on the physiology of birds.
Dr. Colin G. Scanes is Professor Emeritus of Ecology, Evolution & Behavior at the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee. He obtained his PhD from the University of Wales and his DSc from Hull University. His research interests include anthrozoology; animal physiology, nutrition, and production; and veterinary medicine. He has received numerous awards for his research in animal and agricultural sciences, most recently from the American Society of Animal Science. In addition to faculty positions with the University of Wisconsin, Iowa State University, and Mississippi State University, Dr. Scanes has worked various federal positions with the USDA, SANREM CRSP, DOE, and EPA FQPA. He has led the development of more than a dozen books, including the first edition of Animals and Human Society and seven editions of Sturkie’s Avian Physiology.
