Standard Animal Physiology is a comprehensive textbook written by Andrew Wilson and first published in 1878. The book provides a detailed overview of the physiological processes that occur in animals, including both vertebrates and invertebrates. It covers topics such as the nervous system, circulation, respiration, digestion, and reproduction, as well as the physiological adaptations of different animal species to their environments. The book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of animal physiology. The first section covers the basic principles of physiology, including the chemical and physical properties of living matter, and the processes of metabolism and growth. The following sections delve into specific physiological systems, such as the nervous system, circulatory system, and respiratory system, providing detailed descriptions of their structures and functions. The book also explores the ways in which animals adapt to their environments, including the physiological mechanisms behind hibernation, migration, and other forms of animal behavior. It also includes a section on comparative physiology, which compares the physiological processes of different animal species and explores the evolutionary origins of these processes. Overall, Standard Animal Physiology is a comprehensive and detailed textbook that provides a thorough understanding of the physiological processes that occur in animals. It is a valuable resource for students and researchers in the fields of biology, physiology, and zoology, as well as anyone with an interest in animal biology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
