The comparative approach to immunology can be traced to the era of Pasteur and Metchnikov in which observations regarding foreign recognition in invertebrates was a factor in the develop ment of the principal concepts that created the foundation of what now is the broad field of immunology.

The evolutionary path leading to vertebrates was complex and replete with chance. When we consider our own deep history, we seldom think about how steeply the odds have been stacked against us. The world of the distant past, over 3.5 billion years ago, would be unrecognizable to anyone who might be able to travel back to that point in time. The Earth was then a very different place, with no multicellular organisms and a toxic atmosphere composed primarily of nitrogen and carbon dioxide. Oxygen, the lifeblood of our world today, was present only in trace amounts, and the absence of an

Vertebrate Life, 10th Edition blends information about anatomy, physiology, ecology, and behavior to present vertebrates within an evolutionary context. Engaging and readable, the 10th edition features full color throughout with completely new photographs and line art. Important advances in vertebrate biology are highlighted, including the increasing influence of molecular phylogenies, insights provided by evo-devo, and our growing appreciation of the significance of developmental plasticity and epigenetics. Taxon-specific conservation issues are discussed in each chapter that treats extant forms.
