SCIENCE OF I 

 ANIMAL LIFE [ 



By WILLIAM M. BARROWS 



Ohio State University 



H 



THIS textbook in high school zoology gives the student I 

 a broad understanding of the principles of the science; 

 it is not limited to immediate utilitarian phases, but is | 

 concerned also with the more far reaching and significant 

 relationships of biology to human society. 



The content of the book is sane and balanced; there is | 

 inclusion of much material of a general biological nature. 1 

 The life processes and reactions of living animals are 

 emphasized while description has been subordinated. The 

 study of ecology is given meaning and unity by basing 

 the treatment of animal associations upon behavior. 



The book covers in a thorough way the prescribed work | 

 for the high school and will make the teaching of a half 

 year course practical and effective. 



Science of Animal Life is written simply and with swift | 



movement and stimulation. There is abundant illustra- | 



tion. In every way this is the type of textbook which | 



lifts zoology and biology to their rightful place in the | 



curriculum by including material that is of lasting value. | 

 It meets the individual and social needs of our time.
