简介：　　 第3版《动物科学概论：从全球性、生物学、社会学和工业化的角度》 　　继续向读者呈现出最全面、覆盖了最新内涵的传统学科，这对为动物科学奠 　　定坚实的基础是非常必要的。本书包括营养、消化、饲料、遗传、繁殖、疾 　　病和动物行为等内容，畜种章节涉及到马、奶牛、肉牛、绵羊、山羊、家禽 　　和猪等主要畜种，以及水产、宠物／伴侣动物、羊驼和兔子等次要畜种。 　　 除此之外，对现代动物科学的研究同样需要用全面的、非传统的方法来 　　有效地介绍这个学科如何成为人类存在过程中不断变化而不可分割的部分。 　　因此，作者W．Stephen Damron不仅仅向读者展现了主要畜种的方方面面连 　　同它们各自的特点，而且还唤起读者深深思考一些关于动物科学对社会以及 　　社会反过来对学科的影响： 　　 动物福利和动物权利——动物科学生涯； 　　 动物作为谷物的消费者——动物在可持续农业中的作用； 　　 食品安全——世界农业生产体系； 　　 影响世界农业结构的因素——生物技术与遗传工程； 　　 动物对人类的价值——纵向综合； 　　 从对疯牛病的讨论到最近将农业综合企业作为一个行业，本书在一些重 　　要领域中为读者提供了全面而生动的介绍。
