Quiring, D.P. — Functional Anatomy of the Vertebrates
Prima edizione
McGraw-Hill xi, 624, 257 text figs. . HB. Orig. cloth. Small name stamp to endpaper. Vg.. 1st edition. A mid-twentieth-century textbook of comparative vertebrate anatomy, notable for interpreting anatomical structure in relation to function, performance and behaviour rather than treating morphology purely descriptively.

The work anticipates the increasingly functional and evolutionary approach to comparative anatomy that became influential later in the twentieth century..
