Invertebrate Zoology, Eighth Edition offers a clear and comprehensive introduction to the study of animals that make up more than 98% of Earth's biodiversity. From simple protozoans to complex molluscs and arthropods, the book highlights the extraordinary diversity, ecological importance, and evolutionary significance of invertebrates. Organized for both accessibility and depth, the text moves from general principles to detailed coverage of each major group. It combines explanations of anatomy, physiology, and life cycles with insights into ecology, behavior, and evolution. Illustrations, structured chapters, and student-friendly features ensure that the subject remains engaging rather than overwhelming. This edition integrates major advances in systematics, developmental biology, and molecular research. It also addresses pressing issues such as habitat loss, climate change, invasive species, and the biomedical relevance of many invertebrate groups. Updated taxonomic treatments and reorganized content provide clarity for both instructors and students. Research Focus Boxes, suggested readings, and inquiry-based topics invite readers to engage directly with primary scientific literature and current debates, encouraging critical thinking beyond memorization. Suitable as both a textbook and reference, this edition presents invertebrate zoology as a vibrant and evolving field—one that connects fundamental biology with modern scientific discovery.
