"Principles of Comparative Physiology" by William Benjamin Carpenter offers a detailed exploration of the physiological functions across different animal species. Published in 1854, this work provides a comprehensive overview of the comparative aspects of life processes, reflecting the scientific understanding of the mid-19th century.
Carpenter's text examines various physiological systems, comparing their structures and functions in different animal groups. This approach sheds light on the evolution and adaptation of physiological mechanisms, making it a valuable resource for understanding the diversity of life. Though historical, this book offers unique insights into the development of comparative physiology as a discipline.
