This volume is highly recommended for undergraduate majors and graduate students in the biological sciences, as well as for evolutionary and cognitive neuroscientists. * Paul Tibbetts, Philosophy & Cognitive Science, University of Dayton, The Quarterly Review of Biology * ...what most impressed me was the depth and comprehensive coverage of the historical and current literature on the origins, paleoecology, morphology, endothermy, physiology, and comparative neural and functional anatomy of basal chordates to crown vertebrates. Given this range of detailed coverage this volume deserves to be read through at least twice.
