Description

Reproductive Physiology of Mammals: From Farm to Field and Beyond explores the fundamental principles of mammalian reproductive biology in the context of a society that values the management of the reproductive activity of human and nonhuman animals. The format of the book is compatible with traditional approaches to teaching courses in reproductive physiology, but emphasizes basic biological principles and comparative analyses of reproductive physiology. This departure from tradition is intended to accommodate students' growing interests in companion and wild animals and provide expertise that allows students to pursue careers that require literacy in basic science.
