A Text-Book of the Principles of Animal Histology (Classic Reprint)

Discover how cells build tissues and power living bodies, from basic cells to complex sense organs.

This broad, function‑driven history of animal histology helps you see how form follows function in all animals.

Designed for college study, the book teaches general principles of histology rather than a single species. It pairs clear discussions with detailed laboratory descriptions and abundant illustrations to show how tissues develop, vary, and operate across the animal kingdom. A later technical chapter offers practical guidance on preparation and technique.

• A broad, principle‑based view of animal tissues and their roles in life processes.
• Concrete, laboratory‑style examples from a range of animals to illuminate core concepts.
• Illustrations and diagrams that map tissue structure to function, plus practical prep notes.
• A clear path from cells to organs, with context for morphology and embryology.

Ideal for readers of biology, physiology, morphology, and introductory histology courses seeking a solid, functional understanding of tissue science.
