Recensione:

Review of the previous edition: '... an excellent handbook for good IVF laboratory practice right down to a description of total quality management (TQM) systems ... concise, well written and should be mandatory reading for all potential and actual embryologists, as well as for those clinicians seeking a wider understanding of the subject.' Human Fertility

Review of the previous edition: 'The authors are masters of this work. Their views are up-to-date, practical, and well documented. This work will be of greatest interest to clinical practitioners of in vitro fertilization that want a relatively short and very precise overview of laboratory methods. It is highly recommended.' John E. Buster, Fertility and Sterility
