The Physiology of Fishes, 4th Edition, presents utility and scientific interest by fresh approaches, and new topics with new authors from three continents and five countries. In addition to completely new treatments on many of the original topics, we now have chapters on such timely topics as muscle plasticity, metabolism and membranes, oxygen sensing, endocrine disruption, pain, cardiac regeneration, and neuronal aspects. This new edition provides comprehensive coverage of the most important aspects of the form and function of fishes. It covers the most recent advances as well as fundamental subjects such as cardiovascular physiology, intestinal transport, and gill ion uptake. Written by an international group of experts. 481 p.
