"Highly recommended as one of the very few books on the subject worthy of being used an an authoritative guide." – Design
"Illustrators, sculptors, and taxidermists who draw or model animals will welcome this new revised edition." – Natural History
For this edition, Lewis S. Born of the American Museum of Natural History collected 25 plates from George Stubbs’s Anatomy of the Horse, long unavailable; Straus-Durckheim’s Anatomie Descriptive et Comparative du Chat; and Cuvier and Laurrillard’s Anatomie Comparée. These plates, as fully annotated as the plates that make up the original book, supplement Ellenberger, Baum and Dittrich with anatomical drawings of the monkey, the bat, the flying squirrel, the rat kangaroo, the seal, and the hare. Mr. Lewis also provided a new preface and added to the annotated bibliography, which now contains 66 items.
