Where do the backboned animals begin? This seventh Cambridge volume starts with the acorn worms and sea-squirts, passes through the lancelet, and arrives at the fishes in all their variety. A fascinating bridge from the spineless to the vertebrate world. Trace the deep origins of the animals with backbones, ourselves included.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
