Riassunto

NOW WITH ACCESS TO FULL TEXT ONLINE PLUS MANY OTHER EXTRAS - POSTED ON STUDENTCONSULT.COM ACCESS IS VIA UNIQUE PIN NUMBER IN FRONT OF BOOK.

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.
