An Introduction to

ANIMAL BIO-LOGY- Third Edition"One is accustomed to seeing textbooks of zoology filled with text that is

tiresome and illustrations that hurt the eyes. This book is attractive in appear-ance, the text is very well written, and the pictures are clearly labeled."-ARCHIVES OF PHYSICAL MEDICINE

"This book. has always been an important text and we are happy to call ourreaders' attention to the new third edition."-WARD'S Natural Science Bulletin

"An excellent text for students. in general biology. This book is now beingused in my class of 77 students."-P. A., Instructor, Shaw University

JORN B. PARKER, Ph.D.,. Professor Emeritus of Biology; and JOHN4gy J. CLARKE, Ph.D.; Assistant Professor of Biology, Retired; Both of The

Laborat;ory Instructions in

ANIMAL BIOLOGY

Third EditionThis manual is the res-lk of experience in

conducting laboratory exercises coordinated

with and made an integral part of a course in

biology for beginners. The new discovery with

reference to the red blood cells of the frog hasbeen included in this new edition. A labora-

tory exercise on the Dog Fish has been added.

110 Pages. Price, $1.50

Laboratory Instructions in

PlANT BIOLOGY

Third EditionFormerly published as Part II of Labora-

tory Instructions in ANIMAL BIOLOGY.However in many schools the introductorycourse in biology is confined wholly to thestudy of animal life or of plant life (but notboth), so it has been revised and published asa separate manual.The exercises are not thoserequired by a fornal course in botany, butthere is sufficient material included to enablethe student to acquire basic knowledge of theplant world.
