ABOUT THE BOOK:-
"This book covers in depth the structures and mechanisms of early human embryonic development from the prefertilization period through organogenesis and provides access to the Student Consult website, which includes downloadable full-color illustrations and animated videos showing select developmental processes. The book includes numerous boxed clinical correlations, case vignettes, and review questions with answers. The illustrations are excellent and include several new scanning electron micrographs and clinical case photographs. The revision of chapter 12, on the neural crest, is especially valuable as it effectively consolidates the latest information regarding the complex role of this tissue in development. Grouping the integumentary, skeletal, and muscular systems together in chapter 9 may confuse readers, as these tissues primarily arise from different primordia. The extensive passages on molecular processes and signaling pathways may be daunting to readers lacking a foundation in molecular biology or genetics, and the book would benefit from placing these sections under separate subheadings. In addition, it would be helpful to include chapter information in the page headers, as well as a glossary."-Erin Leslie, PhD(Midwestern University) Doody Review: 4 starsISBN - 9781455727940
