Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Notes on the Osteology and Myology of the Domestic Fowl, (Gallus Domesticus): For the Use of Colleges and Schools of Comparative Anatomy and for the Independent Zoological Student
In this work, the common order of arrangement has been departed from to some extent. In the Osteology the bones of the skull instead of being given first, are reserved for the last. This has been done because these bones are more closely united and consequently cannot be studied by the beginner so easily as some of the other bones. For the same reason the muscles of the limbs have been described before those of the back, neck and head are studied.
