Integrates the treatment of groups of animals phylum by phylum with a functional approach to the various invertebrate anatomical and physiological systems of better known species. It has a new chapter on protozoa, expanded details on parasitism and economic exploitation of invertebrates and more.
The majority of undergraduate texts in invertebrate zoology fall into one of two categories. They either offer a systematic treatment of groups of animals phylum by phylum, or adopt a functional approach to the various invertebrate anatomical and physiological systems of the better known species. The Invertebrates: a New Synthesis is the first and only textbook to integrate both approaches and thus meet the modern teaching needs of the subject.
