Riassunto:

Ramón Piñón's textbook is themost up-to-date and useful introduction to human reproductivebiology available. This book, developed from the author's course notes at UC San Diego, is designed as an introductory text for non-science majors.
By capturing the latest developments in this dynamic field–including cloning, embryonic stem cells, and assisted reproduction–Ramón Piñón has made sure that his textbook is the most up-to-date and useful introduction to human reproductive biology available. This book, developed from the author’s course notes at UC San Diego, is designed as an introductory text for non-science majors. Although its emphasis is on biology, it combines a rich assortment of comparative historical and literary notes with a contemporary inquiry into human sexuality. It may also serve as an intermediate-level text for non-science majors, or an introductory text for students of biology.
