INVERTEBRATE MEDICINE, Second Edition BLOG

AN INTRODUCTION

February 23, 2012

"Anne Klein," a black widow spider that took up residence in my wife's boot!
Welcome to my INVERTEBRATE MEDICINE textbook blog! Here's a chance for you to learn about the book, ask any questions you have about the content, contributors, or anything else related to invertebrate medicine and zoology. I will also make every effort to update the site on a regular (at least weekly) basis with corrections, updates, and an article of the week!

I'm excited about the book and hope you find it to be interesting, helpful, and a valuable resource. While there are no plans for a third edition at this time, I welcome your comments, suggestions, and input for future editions should they come to fruition.

Thanks for reading and I look forward to hearing from you!

Best regards,

Greg
