Human Embryology and Developmental Biology

0/5 ( ratings)

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.

Presents a new chapter that explores the fundamental aspects of molecular mechanisms in development, with coverage of important developmental molecules such as homeobox-containing genes - members of the transforming growth factor family - the fibroblast growth factor family - and the Pax genes.
Includes new content on two developmentally important molecules: sonic hedgehog and retinoic acid.
Offers updated material on left-ring asymmetry - major signaling centers in the early embryo - cross-sectional organization of the nervous system - the molecular organization of the gut - and the basis for the early establishment of the vascular system.
