BOOK
The Comparative Endocrinology of the Invertebrates
This book presents a comprehensive study of endocrine systems in invertebrates, focusing on hormonal regulation and neuroendocrine mechanisms across diverse invertebrate groups. It examines the structure and function of endocrine organs, the role of hormones in processes such as growth, reproduction, molting, and metamorphosis, and compares these systems across taxa to highlight evolutionary relationships. The work integrates physiological, biochemical, and morphological perspectives, making it a foundational text in comparative endocrinology and invertebrate physiology.
