The Biological Rhythms and Clocks of Intertidal Animals. Este artículo no está disponible.The Biological Rhythms and Clocks of Intertidal Animals

"This text presents a detailed review of current knowledge of these biological clocks as found in intertidal animals. It is intended for researchers in this area, but the jargon free presentation and a glossary make it accessible to non specialists."--Biosis"An important classroom text and essential reference book for those who have advanced interests in chronobiology. Very welcome detailed and well-thought-out presentations that summarize our knowledge about rhythms of a select group of invertebrates that have been particularly well studies."--Maine Naturalist"Jack Palmer has written an overview of exactly what he claims in the title, and he has done a superb job in a field where he is one of the major players. The book contains a wealth of information on the types of rhythms found in intertidal animals....The work is remarkably free of jargon...and any intelligent person can read it with both pleasure and intellectual reward....This is both an inspired and an inspiring work, and after reading it I couldn't stop myself from planning respirometers and tide machines. I recommend it to anyone needing reassurance about the success of scientific endeavor, or the compatibility of rational thought with cultured iconoclasms, or an interest in the biological rhythms and clocks of intertidal animals."--Chronobiology International"A splendid compendium of meticulous description and critical review of experiments on a wide range of organisms. Readers still skeptical about such rhythms should have their doubts dispelled."--The Quarterly Review of Biology
