| Publisher Description: This vintage book contains a comprehensive guide to zoology written by Alfred Newton. This fascinating and profusely illustrated text will appeal to those with an interest in zoology, and it will be of special interest to collectors of antiquarian literature of this ilk. The chapters of this text include: 'Star-Fish and Sea-Urchin', 'Spider', 'Comparison of Skeletons', 'Skull of Rabbit and Squirrel', 'Analogy and Homology', 'Nomenclature', 'Synonyms and Homonyms', 'Swallow and Martin', 'Priority of Names', 'Binomial Nomenclature', etcetera. Many antiquarian books like this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author. |
