Human Embryology & Developmental Biology, 3rd Ed. > Embryology

The completely revised and updated New Edition delivers comprehensive, clearly written coverage of the development of the human embryo from conception to birth. Using a classical morphological approach to embryology, it offers mechanistic explanations for both normal and abnormal human development, enabling readers to understand development in terms of cellular and molecular controls. And, a wealth of reader-friendly features make this resource exceptionally user friendly.
- Features an exceptionally reader-friendly format that includes Clinical Correlations boxes
• Clinical Vignettes
• timelines which highlight the progression of development
• Key Molecules tables
• and end-of-chapters summaries.
- Uses a wealth of full-color illustrations to provide a realistic representation of developmental concepts.
