AN INTRODUCTION TO ANIMAL TAXONOMY
Synopsis
We aim, as before, to give readers a perspective both on what is known, and on what is unknown. We have written the book for a wide range of students, but it should also prove useful for scientists wishing to follow progress outside their own specialized fields. Although information in the taxonomy is expanding rapidly, human brain capacity is not. This discrepancy creates an increasing challenge for text book writers, teachers, and especially students. We have been forced to think harder than ever in deciding what facts and concepts are essential
