Editorial Reviews

Review
"This book constitutes a major and unique contribution to this area because it covers mammalian and nonmammalian endocrinology ... [It] is clearly written, judiciously illustrated, and ... carefully edited ... It contains a wealth of factual information ... A basic reference for professional research scientists ... [The] text admirably succeeds in stimulating the scientific curiosity of readers and in conveying a sense of fascination for the intricate mechanisms and importance of endocrinology."
--Pierre Deviche in GENERAL AND COMPARATIVE ENDOCRINOLOGY -- Review --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Review
Praise for the Third Edition:

"...a good text for comparative endocrinology classes or classes composed of students from a wide variety of disciplines...this book is well written and organized. Concepts are explained in a manner that should be easily understandable to beginning endocrinology students."
-TRENDS IN ENDOCRINOLOGY AND METABOLISM

3.0 out of 5 stars Well written, factual, maybe too indepth , October 25, 2008
I have Dr. Norris for my endocrinology class. The text book goes further in depth than his lectures which can be a pro and a con. The text is very small and sometimes confusing, but when you work though it provides the reader with a strong backbone knowledge of endocrinology. Some figures are a bit too confusing. More simplistic pictures and color figures would greatly improve the book.

extremely comprehensive as far as comparative endocrinology is concerned and does a very good job on mammalian endocrinology.
