Physiology of Farm Animals

Abstract

SUCCESS in the rearing and feeding of animals depends to a large extent upon the practical application of the principles of physiology. Yet, although the breeding of farm animals and the production of meat and milk are of such great economic importance, the study of the physiology of farm animals has received comparatively little attention. The appearance of this text-book is, therefore, welcome. The reputation of the writers is likely to secure a wide use of the book in agricultural teaching centres.

By T. B. Wood Dr. F. H. A. Marshall. Part i. General. By Dr. F. H. A. Marshall. Pp. xii + 204.(Cambridge: At the University Press, 1920.) Price 16s. net.
