Series: The Natural History of the Crustacea

The Crustacea is one of the dominant invertebrate groups, displaying staggering diversity in form and function, and spanning the full spectrum of Earth's environments. Crustaceans are increasingly used as model organisms in all fields of biology, as few other taxa exhibit such a variety of body shapes and adaptations to particular habitats and environmental conditions. Physiology is the fourth volume in The Natural History of the Crustacea series, and the first book in over twenty-five years to provide an overview of the comparative physiology of crustaceans. An understanding of physiology is crucial to a comprehension of the biology of this fascinating invertebrate group. Written by a group of internationally recognized experts studying a wide range of crustacean taxa and topics, this volume synthesizes current research in a format that is accessible to a wide scientific audience.

Reviews for Physiological Regulation

This volume is a luminous compendium documenting our progress toward understanding important issues in several scientific arenas. In addition to being a timely review by a broad spectrum of scientists, this will be an excellent resource for teachers, and uninitiated novices as well as professional crustacean biologists. It will become an indispensable resource in the scientific community. Carl L. Thurman II, Quarterly Review of Biology This series forms a reference work in the truest sense, one that will be referred to frequently for many years to come. The whole series would be an excellent addition to a reference library; these individual volumes are essential for anyone involved in research on the neurobiology or physiology of crustaceans, or indeed, other invertebrates. Adrian J. Wolstenholme, Invertebrate Neuroscience
