Author Description

This text is a derivative of the tenth edition of Hickman's Integrated Principles of Zoology, and it shares a lot of material with that text. This text has less coverage of basic biological principles, evolutionary history, and chemistry. The sections on research and taxonomy are up-to-date with new and enhanced cladograms. In addition, there is a new chapter on immunity, and an ancillary NetQuest: Exploring Zoology which complements the text.
