Excerpt from Comparative Studies of Mammalian Blood: With Special Reference to the Microscopical Diagnosis of Blood Stains in Criminal Cases I sympathize with the author of a text book on Medical Jurisprudence who is not a practical microscopist himself, if he is undecided whose observations on blood he is to accept as correct, and consequently expresses an adverse or guarded Opinion and I fully sympathize with the lawyer or physician who, as a rule, has access only to such books upon this particular subject that have outlived their use fulness, and which only interfere with the cause Of science and justice. The character and nature of expert testimony as regards blood stains in criminal cases will be fully considered and some peculiar incidents from my own practice will be cited.

Comparative Mammalian Haematology: Cellular Components and Blood Coagulation of Captive Wild Mammals presents a critical review of the hematology of the vertebrates. It discusses the characteristics of blood components of primates; the features of the red cells of carnivores; and the different species of canine. The book covers the blood components of cats, monkeys, bears, mouse, horse, rhinoceros, pig, llama, boars, camels, and deer. The book can provide useful information to hematologists, biologists, students, and researchers.

Comparative Biology of the Normal Lung, 2nd Edition, offers a rigorous and comprehensive reference for all those involved in pulmonary research. This fully updated work is divided into sections on anatomy and morphology, physiology, biochemistry, and immunological response. It continues to provide a unique comparative perspective on the mammalian lung. This edition includes several new chapters and expanded content, including aging and development of the normal lung, mechanical properties of the lung, genetic polymorphisms, the comparative effect of stress of pulmonary immune function, oxygen signaling in the mammalian lung and much more. By addressing scientific advances and critical issues in lung research, this 2nd edition is a timely and valuable work on comparative data for the interpretation of studies of animal models as compared to the human lung. Edited and authored by experts in the field to provide an excellent and timely review of cross-species comparisons that will help you interpret and compare data from animal studies to human findings Incorporates lung anatomy and physiology, cell specific interactions and immunological responses to provide you with a single and unique multidisciplinary source on the comparative biology of the normal lung Includes new and expanded content on neonatal and aged lungs, developmental processes, cell signaling, antioxidants, airway cells, safety pharmacology and much more Section IV on Physical and Immunological Defenses has been significantly updated with 9 new chapters and an increased focus on the pulmonary immunological system
