Many books emphasize the pathological histology of fish, but this volume fills a gap in the literature by focusing on normal fish histology. A general reference guide, it provides an extensive set of histological images of fish, discussing approximately 40 species. The book presents histology as a discipline\u2014including its methodology and techniques\u2014and its goals of investigating the structure and function of tissue samples. By histologically examining the normal physiology of fish tissue, scientists can gain insight into signs of disease not easily recognized on gross examination. > Histology is the discipline of biology that involves the microscopic examination of thin stained tissue sections in order to study their structure and correlate it with function. Histology can detect signs of disease not easily recognized on gross examination and can therefore be of interest in fish health supervision. The aim of this volume is to present a general reference guide provin
