The book provides discussion on all aspects of Invertebrates as covered in Practical Zoology. Beginning with general techniques of preparation of cultures of Protozoa, microscopic slides and laboratory regents, it also covers in tabular and detailed form, recent classification of various invertebrate phyla with examples of each order or suborder. Wide coverage of each phylum, and diagrams of major and minor dissections make the book equally useful for both undergraduate and postgraduate students.

Practical Zoology for Advanced Level and Intermediate Students is a laboratory manual that covers various zoological experiments. The book presents methods, techniques, and illustrations relevant to zoological experiments. The text first discusses microscopical techniques, and then proceeds to tackling the morphology and anatomy of various animals. Next, the book deals with cytology and histology. The next part covers elementary biochemistry. The fifth part discusses physiology, while the sixth part covers genetics. The last part deals with vertebrate embryology. The book will be most useful to students of disciplines concerned with animal biology, such as veterinary medicine and comparative anatomy.

A Manual of Practical Zoology Part 1 is written as per the syllabi adopted for B.Sc. Part 1 of various Indian Universities. This Manual covers exercises assigned in the Syllabi of undergradute curriculum of part 1 including Cell Biology, Genetics, Development Biology and Biodiversity. The main feature is the unique style of text to museum specimens covering various aspects of information such as Common name, Distribution, Habit and Habitat, Characters of identification, Special characters, Biological importance and Economic importance. In fact, the marks of spotting are based on such information. Biodiversity based exercises are unique feature of this book generally lacking in books available in the market. The figures are simple and easy to draw.
