This is a major new textbook that is intended to lead students away from purely descriptive zoology courses into an experimental approach that emphasizes asking and answering questions about nature. The book gives a panoramic view of vertebrate life, classification, ecology and behaviour. Section I of the book describes the major groups of vertebrates and their origins. The second section covers classification and its methodology. Section III describes the ecology of vertebrates from two standpoints: how individuals cope with environmental extremes, and principles of population and community ecology as illustrated by experiments carried out in the field. Section IV describes the geographic distribution of vertebrates. The fifth section discusses migration. Vertebrate behaviour is the subject of the final section and covers observations and the theories and experiments they have inspired.

Excerpt from A Course in Vertebrate Zoology: A Guide to the Dissection and Comparative Study of Vertebrate Animals The plan of this course is similar to that of the Invertebrate Zoology published by the author three years ago. Its principal aim is to furnish a guide to the dissection of types of the most important groups of vertebrates. The directions are practical in character, and are designed to be in sufficient detail to enable the student to carry on his work intelligently and profitably and with the least possible waste of time and material. Vertebrates are large animals with complex systems of organs, and it is impossible for a young student to dissect them in the best manner unless he receives full instructions at every important step. To give such instructions is the main purpose of this book. The course seeks also to keep the morphological relations of the various organs and systems of organs constantly before the mind and to make the study a comparative one. Each of the dissections is complete in itself and is not depend ent upon any of the others. The teacher may thus assign to his class such of the dissections as he wishes, and in the order he wishes. The directions do not contain exhaustive descriptions of the animals dissected, the completeness of the description in each case being made dependent upon the pedagogical ends aimed at, and upon the time ordinarily at the disposal of the student. The organs which have been treated in the least detail are the muscles, in most cases only the superficial ones being described, and they not minutely. A teacher will find it an easy matter, however, to extend the study of the muscles if he wishes. The particular order in which the various systems of organs of each animal are studied is the one which experience has shown will accomplish the desired result with the greatest economy of time and material.
