Since its first edition in 1964, Rowan Frandson’s textbook has
been a mainstay of animal and veterinary science courses
throughout the world. Rowan Frandson earned Bachelor’s,
Master’s, and Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degrees from
Colorado State University. He practiced veterinary medicine
for a short time before joining the faculty of Colorado State
University where he taught both human and veterinary anat-
omy. Dr. Frandson’s original goal for his textbook was to
provide a thorough grounding in the principles of anatomy
and physiology and to apply these to the species of particular
importance in agricultural practice. Now entering its eighth
edition, Anatomy and Physiology of Farm Animals seeks to
continue the tradition of accessible information for students
Rowan Frandson in the fields of agriculture and animal science, while simulta-
1920 – 2015 neously updating the text with new understanding in physiol-
ogy, biomedicine, and applied anatomy.
