"Living Invertebrates" is an introduction to the invertebrates for students and for anyone who seeks more familiarity with the diversity of animal life on earth. It provides a complete and balanced coverage of the groups of invertebrates written in readable language, with the minimum of technical detail. The authors have selected observations and experiments that illustrate important methods, approaches and principles. In particular they have chosen material that illuminates the functional morphology, ecology and natural history of the phyla, in such a way as to bring out the inherent interest in each group. The many photographs, a large number of which have never before been published, provide an approach to the shapes, textures and aspects of invertebrates that cannot properly be communicated through words or drawings.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent overview of invertebrate phyla,
By Jenn (Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Living Invertebrates (Hardcover)
This book is a great text for introductory courses in invertebrate zoology. Its format is very readable and provides an appropriate amount of detail for this level. It also has lots of pictures, which is especially helpful when studying more obscure phyla. Diversity of major phyla is covered as well. My only complaint is that the book sometimes doesn't say much about structure and function. This is one book you won't want to sell back to the bookstore when the course is over!
