Notă biografică

Frank Kirschbaum is a retired Professor at the Humboldt University of Berlin. He obtained his PhD from the University of Cologne in 1972. As postdoc he worked in Gif sur Yvette (France) performing studies on the reproduction and ontogeny of weakly electric fishes. Back in Cologne he did his Habilitation in 1984. The next steps were the Free University and then the Humboldt University in Berlin where he became Head of the Department of Biology and Ecology of Fishes and at the same time he led the Department Biology and Ecology of Fishes at the Leibniz-Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries. Teaching activities comprised fish biology, tropical fish communities, fish systematics, and histology.
Krzysztof Formicki received his MSc (1981) and PhD (1984) at the University of Agriculture, Szczecin, Poland. Subsequently he has been engaged as a lecturer and researcher. He received his Habilitation in 1991. He has been a Professor since 1993 and Head of the Department at West Pomeranian University of Technology, Szczecin, Poland since 2000. He was also a Dean and Vice-Rector of the University. He has had research stays in USA (University of California) and Japan.

Recenzii

This multiauthor volume edited by Kirschbaum (emer., Humboldt Univ.) and Formicki (West Pomeranian Univ. of Technology, Szczecin) comprises an eighteen-chapter monograph on the microscopic anatomy of fish, with chapters dedicated to the history of histology, histological techniques, and the histology of major fish systems (muscular, digestive, reproductive, etc.). Also included are three indexes sorted by fish family names, English (common) names, and species names. Each chapter, contributed by a unique grouping of authors, includes black-and-white plates representing tissues for each fish system covered. Two chapters are authored by Kirschbaum alone, notably the chapter on the electric organs. The writing is concise and consistently technical. An appendix of high-resolution color plates is also included. Owing to the very technical nature of the text, this volume is most suitable for researchers and fisheries scientists with an active interest in fish histology and histological techniques. It would also serve as an excellent resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students who will be involved in performing fish histology work and other fish research.

Descriere

In recent years, histology has become an essential component for the study of scientific disciplines, and new techniques have increased our ability to detect a wide variety of structures. Written by an international team of experts, this book will cover the entire spectrum of fish histology.
