zoology. This book balances coverage of the major groups of animals and phylogenetic perspectives with basic vocabulary. Terms new to students are listed in boldface type at the end of each chapter with definitions. Unlike most zoology books, "Zoology: An Inside View of Animals" combines textbook information for the lecture component of a course and the manual for the laboratory portion into one book. A laboratory exercise or demonstration concludes most chapters providing students guidance by way of direct observation, analysis, written explanations, and/or dissections.
