This book is a succinct yet comprehensive text devoted to the systematics, evolution, morphology, ecology, physiology, and behavior of marine mammals. The first edition, considered the leading text in the field, is required reading for all marine biologists concerned with marine mammals. Revisions include updates of citations, expansion of nearly every chapter and full color photographs. This title continues the tradition by fully expanding and updating nearly all chapters.* Comprehensive, up-to-date coverag 606 $aMarine mammals 606 $aMarine mammals$xEvolution 615 0$aMarine mammals. 615 0$aMarine mammals$xEvolution. 676 $a599.5 700 $aBerta$b Annalisa$01607287 701 $aSumich$b James L$01607288 701 $aKovacs$b Kit M.$f1956-$01756871 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826308703321 996 $aMarine mammals$94194402 997 $aUNINA
