Description
Vertebrate Endocrinology, Sixth Edition, provides a comprehensive, up-to-date treatment of the endocrine system for college and university students as well as researchers. This book is logically arranged, easily comprehended, and well-illustrated. It covers traditional hormone-based systems and introduces all forms of chemical communication, their implications for the health of humans, domesticated, and wild vertebrates. Written by two experts who have completed extensive research in comparative vertebrate endocrinology with an emphasis on natural and anthropogenic environmental factors influencing endocrine systems. Collectively, the authors have taught courses in endocrinology at the undergraduate and graduate level for more than 60 years. After first publishing in 1985, Vertebrate Endocrinology, Sixth Edition, continues to serve as an important resource for graduate students and advanced undergraduates in the biological sciences, animal sciences, and veterinary sciences. Endocrine researchers will also benefit from the book's relevance in the areas of comparative, veterinary, and mammalian endocrinology. - Addresses the endocrinology of all vertebrate and non-vertebrate chordates - The only endocrinology textbook that deals with evolutionary aspects of endocrine systems - Includes biochemical, cellular, tissue, organismic, behavioral, and environmental aspects of chemical communication

David O. Norris is Professor Emeritus at the University of Colorado. He obtained his BS from the Baldwin-Wallace University and his PhD from the University of Washington. His broad research areas include environmental endocrinology and forensic botany. In the area of environmental endocrinology, his studies have focused on the neuroendocrine control of thyroid, adrenal, and reproductive functions with special interest in the role of environmental factors that alter the activities of these neuroendocrine systems.Dr. James Carr is Professor at Texas Tech University. He obtained his BSc at Rutgers University and his PhD at the University of Colorado. He studies neuroendocrinology and the environmental endocrinology of amphibians and fishes, and he has taught courses in physiology, endocrinology, histology, and neurobiology. His endocrine research focuses on the neuroendocrinology of stress, the role of visual system neuropeptides in behavioral tradeoffs, and lab and field studies into the role of EDCs that adversely influence thyroid and reproductive physiology.
