| Publisher Description: This atlas of mammalian skeletal morphology fills an important gap in the literature via its illustration of mammal bones by relating anatomy to ecology and evolutionary history. Drawings and diagrams document different structures and functions. The book is organized by element, and readers can compare the morphologies of the same part of the skeleton between organisms of diverse ancestry and ecology. The book also helps readers understand the causes of morphological differences between mammalian skeletons. |
