A Photographic Atlas of Marine Biology is a full-color supplement that provides photographs of preserved specimens and images taken at various aquaria to provide coverage of organisms in the worldÕs oceans. It is designed to accompany any marine biology text or laboratory manual.

A beautifully illustrated reference providing fascinating insights into the hidden world of the seafloor using the latest deep-sea imaging.

This comprehensive atlas comprising over 300 beautiful color photographs of marine animals dangerous to humans has been written by three experts in the fields of hazardous and venomous animals, marine biology, emergency medicine and education. It is of considerable practical use not only to marine biologists, oceanographers, marine scientists and toxicologists but also to accident and emergency trauma specialists who are treating an alarming number of casualties among divers and others involved in maritime occupations and leisure pursuits. One of the world's leading biotoxicologists has joined forces with an eminent environmental physician and a youth science specialist to produce a unique and beautiful book. It is not only of immense practical value, but, by its powerful and exciting photography also enthralls anyone intrigued by the sea.

This full-color atlas provides students with a balanced visual representation of the diversity of biological organisms. It is designed to accompany any biology textbook or laboratory manual.

This full-color atlas provides students with a balanced visual representation of the diversity of biological organisms. It is designed to accompany any biology textbook or laboratory manual. More than 1,000 full-color, high-quality photographs and photomicrographs depict specimens as they would be seen in the laboratory.Updated photographs, illustrations, cladograms, and taxonomy throughout. Addition of foraminiferans, radiolarians, and chytrids, as well as the female urogenital system in the fetal pig dissections. Numerous dissections of plants as well as invertebrate and vertebrate organisms are presented for students who have the opportunity to conduct similar dissections. Sheep heart, eye, and brain dissections are among these. Clear, accurate, completely labeled figures include life-cycle illustrations.

The deep oceans and global seafloor are truly Earth's last frontier. They remain largely unexplored, yet are critical to our survival on this planet. This magnificent, full-color volume transports you to bizarre landscapes hosting exotic life forms that rival the most imaginative science fiction. Starting with a historical summary of seafloor exploration and the developing technologies used to study this extreme environment, it then describes the distinctive geologic components of the Earth's ocean floor and the unusual biological communities found along the mid-ocean ridges. This is an indispensable reference for researchers, teachers, and students of marine science, and a visually stunning resource that will enlighten and intrigue oceanographers and enthusiasts alike. A suite of online resources, including photographs and video clips, combine with the book to provide fascinating insights into the hidden world of seafloor geology and biology using the latest deep-sea imaging and geological concepts.

This full-color photographic atlas provides clear photographs and drawings of tissues and organisms similar to specimens seen in a zoology laboratory. It is designed to accompany any zoology text or laboratory manual and delivers a balanced visual representation of the major groups of zoological organisms.

This photographic atlas presents light and (or) scanning electron micrographs of 580 pairs of sagittal otoliths representing 288 species, 97 families, and 27 orders of fish from the northwest Atlantic. For most species, multiple individuals across a range of sizes are presented in order to highlight changes in otolith shape with increased size. For 72 of the families, photographs of the lapillar and asteriscal otoliths are also presented.

Biology is a visually-oriented science. This book is designed to give students colour photographs of organisms encountered in a biology course. It can accompany any biology text or laboratory manual used in the classroom and on certain courses replace them. The book provides a balanced visual represeantation of the five kingdoms of biological organisms, with completely labelled informative figures.
