Lawrence (formerly of U. of Liverpool, UK) and Fowler (formerly of Scottish Agricultural College, UK) present an undergraduate text explaining animal growth processes important to the practices of the agriculture industry. Proceeding from cell biology to consideration of the whole animal, the discussion revolves primarily around cattle, sheep, and pigs (leaving discussion of chickens to others). Chapters cover growth and structure of tissues related to product value for human consumption; mammary gland growth and product yield; hormonal influences; genetic influences; the immune system; gametes, fertilization, and embryonic growth; efficiency; compensatory growth; puberty; measurement methods; performance enhancers and feed additives; and future trends.
