Editorial Review

Product Description
Livestock raisers and healers throughout the world have traditional ways of classifying and preventing or treating common animal diseases. Many of their "ethnoveterinary" practices offer viable alternatives to conventional Western-style veterinary medicine - especially where the latter is unavailable,
unaffordable, unreliable, or inappropriate. This highly interdisciplinary and international volume provides a critico-analytic overview over the many facets and findings of ethnoveterinary research and development. From sociocultural, political-economic, and environmental as well as biomedical viewpoints, the book presents reviews and case studies of traditional veterinary knowledge and practice, along with historical perspectives, theoretical discussions and research methodologies.At a larger level,
the anthology exemplifies the many potential benefits, for people everywhere, of systematically studying and building upon such rich bodies of "ethnoscience" as that embodied in local/traditional veterinary medicine. ... Read more

Product Description
Reproduction is the biological process by which new individual organisms are produced. Reproduction is a fundamental feature of all known life; each individual organism exists as the result of reproduction. The known methods of reproduction are broadly grouped into two main types: sexual and asexual. In asexual reproduction, an individual can reproduce without involvement with another individual of that species. The division of a bacterial cell into two daughter cells is an example of asexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction is not, however, limited to single-celled organisms. Most plants have the ability to reproduce asexually. Sexual reproduction requires the involvement of two individuals, typically one of each sex. Normal human reproduction is a common example of sexual reproduction. Most animals and plants reproduce sexually. Sexually reproducing organisms have two sets of genes for every trait (called alleles). Offspring inherit one allele for each trait from each parent, thereby ensuring that offspring have a combination of the parents' genes.Having two copies of every gene, only one of which is expressed, allows deleterious alleles to be masked, an advantage believed to have led to the evolutionary development of diploidy. This book presents the latest research in the field from around the globe. ... Read more

Product Description
Interest in the humane and scientifically justifiable use ofresearch animals has intensified since the publication of the firstedition of this textbook. This completely revised and updated textprovides information essential to any researcher interested in usinganimal models for cardiovascular research, or any research whichrequires normal cardiovascular function. The format and presentationhave been changed to make the text more easy to read and use. Anintroductory chapter offers general principles of animal selection,pre and post-operative care, preanesthesia, chemical restraint,analgesia, and the recognition of pain. The number of references citedhas been almost doubled over the previous text and the chaptertabulating normal cardiovascular parameters from intact, awakeanimals, of those species commonly used in research, has been greatlyexpanded. Other chapters providing comprehensive data on thecardiovascular effects of opioids, tranquilizers, anesthetic agentsand other drugs commonly used in cardiovascular research have beenexpanded with special emphasis on species variability to drug effects.The chapters on both naturally occurring and iatrogenic models ofcardiovascular disease have also been expanded and updated. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
This text is a reference for people interested in concepts and methodologies for holistic approaches to research and development in livestock farming systems. It is the result of an international symposium involving researchers in animal production which explored the key contemporary issues facing this field which concerns a growing number of scientists in Europe and beyond. The research papers present the theoretical and methodological background, reflecting the current interest in systemic modelling of livestock farming activities at different scales. The 12 refereed main papers are supported by 60 shorter papers, also refereed, illustrating a great diversity of current research work throughout Europe and in developing countries. Three main topics are investigated: general concepts and approaches for evaluating farmers practices and livestock farms functioning including, for example, epidemiology and herd health management; livestock farming systems studies, focusing on current issues such as economic and social change, and environment and the landscape; methods and tools for evaluating livestock farming systems.For animal production professionals, this book draws on work from over 20 countries setting out the state of the art, from its conceptual bases through systems modelling, to practial tools. ...

Product Description
This text results from the workshop, Strategies for the Development of Fat-Tail Sheep in the Near East. The workshop's aims was to exchange experiences in research. The Near East has more than 242 million head of sheep, most of which are fat-tail breeds. People in the Near East exalt fat-tail sheep because of the quality of lamb and mutton they produce. However, few countries have made serious and concerted efforts to improve their sheep, in particular with respect to the rapid socioeconomic changes which are taking place. Therefore, the workshop aimed at exploring means to benefit the development of the sheep industry in this region. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Recent progress in cell and molecular biology has profound implications for understanding the developmental biology of mammalian embryos. The unifying theme of this volume is a cellular and molecular approach to gametogenesis, embryogenesis, and maternal-fetal interactions in the developmental biology of agriculturally significant mammals. Great progress has been achieved in our understanding of preimplantation mammalian embryogenesis in laboratory species, particularly the mouse, through application of cell and embryo culture methods, cell biological techniques, and, more recently, recombinant DNA technology. A major remaining opportunity is the application of these techniques to problems in domestic species, such as improved methods for in vitro growth and maturation of oocytes, egg and embryo cryopreservation, and genetic manipulation to enhance productivity and herd quality. The authors review current knowledge in key areas, emphasizing new approaches to unsolved problems in the developmental biology of domestic species. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Exploring Animal Behavior in Laboratory and Field is designed to provide a variety of exercises that engage students actively in all phases of scientific investigation, from formulating research questions through interpreting and presenting final results.It attempts to share the collective teaching expertise and experience of members of the Animal Behavior Society with all who are willing to benefit from their wisdom.Four types of exercises are presented: (1) traditional exercises in which students follow a pre-determined protocol to test particular hypotheses explicitly stated in the exercise, (2) traditional exercises that can easily be adapted to inquiry-based approaches, (3) combined pedagogy exercises that involve both traditional and inquiry approaches, and (4) inquiry exercises in which students first brainstorm to generate their own hypotheses, then design their own experiements to test their hypotheses.

*Supports a range of pedagogical styles and texts in animal behavior with active learning experiences that engage students
* Students and instructors benefit from knowledge and experience of members of the Animal Behavior Society
* Flexibility of design enables students and instrucotrs to tailor the exercises to their needs
* Can be used to support lab courses that are completely inquiry based as well as independent student research projects in animal behavior
* Consideration of animal care guidelines provides an excellent way to address and discuss concerns about the use of animals in teaching and research
* Emphasizes the hypothetico-deductive approach that students have difficulty understanding and implementing
* Supporting materials make additional required texts unnecessary and link study design considerations with real studies ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource for those teaching behavior labs
This is a fantastic and much-needed book. As a resource for someone setting up a laboratory course in animal behavior, this book is full of excellent ideas, and I would advise anyone to get a copy of this book. The problem with adopting it as a lab book for students is that there are over 30 labs presented here. As many are multiweek projects, the most that could reasonably be done in a semester is 7-10 labs. Anyone who has taught students knows that having them purchase a book ... for which they will only use 1/4 or 1/3 of the chapters is only inviting a tremendous amount of griping. This is my only complaint with this book, which the publisher was pushing as a lab manual for students, instead of a resource for instructors.

5-0 out of 5 stars An assemblage of studious, college-level essays
Collaboratively assembled and edited by Bonnie J. Ploger (Hamline University) and Ken Yasukawa (Beloit College), Exploring Animal Behavior In Laboratory And Field is a scholarly compendium offering a variety of diverse approaches to the development, function, and evolution of animal behavior, with contribution each being grounded in the creation and careful testing of scientific hypotheses. An assemblage of studious, college-level essays on select topics ranging from the response of tree squirrels to different types of alarm calls, to human nonverbal communications, to chemoreception in lizards, and a great deal more, Exploring Animal Behavior In Laboratory And Field would make an especially welcome addition to Zoological Studies reference collections and Wildlife Studies reading lists. ...
