Beschreibung
This accessible textbook provides a basic understanding of the general evolutionary principles of organismic animal biology and animal diversity. It integrates parallel themes of body organization and phylogeny to provide an evolutionary journey through the diversity of animal life.

Über den Autor
Ariel D. Chipman is an evolutionary developmental biologist at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He is currently Professor and Chair of the Department of Ecology, Evolution & Behavior, and the academic curator of invertebrates at the National Natural History Collections. His research focuses on the evolution of the arthropod body plan. He is the author of over 40 peer reviewed articles and book chapters and is the editor of Cellular Processes in Segmentation (CRC Press, 2020). His teaching experience includes a first year undergraduate course on organismic biology, which he has been teaching for over 15 years, as well as advanced courses in evo-devo, animal evolution, and systematics.
