Overview

The constancy of the internal environment and the concept of homeostasis have been two powerful organizing paradigms in the field of vertebrate physiology since they were first enunciated in the late-19th and early-20th century. This work examines the extent to which desert-living reptiles are governed by these same principles, which sprang from the study of the more physically advanced birds and mammals.
