9781583944523 - Biokinetics and Biodynamics of Human Differentiation: Principles and Applications di Blechschmidt M.D., Erich; Gasser Ph.D., R.F. (27 risultati)

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. Hardcover without dust jacket. Mild bumping noted to back bottom edge and indent to front cover upper edge. Pages clean and unmarked with many illustrations. First published in 1978, this book was immediately recognized as a revolutionary approach to the field of embryology. This edition, with a new preface by R. F. Gasser, PhD, serves as a tribute to the importance of this gourndbreaking work on embryology and is an excellent addition to the professional library of anatomist, developmental physiologists, biologists, osteopaths, craniosacral therapists, researchers of fetal malformations and birth defects, and specialists in experimental medicine.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Based on the three-dimensional organization of metabolic fields, this groundbreaking study appeals to anatomists, developmental physiologists, biologists, osteopaths, craniosacral therapists, specialists in experimental medicine, and those who study fetal malformations and birth defects.Fifty years ago the field of human embryology was incomplete; prior to that time the anatomy of early human embryos was still unknown, and there was much to be learned about the older stages of human embryonic development. It is now understood that human organs result from step-by-step differentiations of the growing human embryo. Research by renowned embryologist Erich Blechschmidt, MD, showed that differentiations are not only the result of a gene effect, but are also brought about through growth initiated by extragenetic (occurring outside the gene) information. Without this extragenetic information the differentiation would not begin.Dr. Blechschmidt and coauthor Raymond Gasser, PhD, maintain that Haeckel's biogenetic law (ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny) was an erroneous attempt to explain developmental processes. Blechschmidt's human embryological investigations showed that Darwin's principles (mutation and selection) are likely valid for the origin of the species, but that they cannot explain the ontogenesis of the organs. The ontogenesis of each individual cannot be derived from phylogenetic facts. The authors stress that a clear distinction must be made between the vast field of phylogenetics and the much more exact and understandable field of ontogenetics-particularly the process of differentiation-and their goal is to present not only the abstract biokinetic principles of differentiation, but the originality of embryonic human beings as well. Their knowledge of developmental movements leads to their conclusion that differentiation is an undivided biodynamic process that occurs during development and includes the chemical processes as well.Logically organized into two sections (the first covers early metabolic fields and includes chapters on the one-cell human ovum, the early embryo, blood vessels, the nervous system, head region, trunk, and limbs; the second describes metabolic fields in later developmental stages, distinguishing fields of corrosion, densation, contusion, distusion, retention, dilation, liquation, and detraction), Biokinetics and Biodynamics of Human Differentiation warrants reading by thoughtful professionals in a number of fields concerned with embryonic differentiation. A new preface by Dr. Gasser addresses how the book's principles and findings were and are understood in the field of human embryology. Originally published: Springfield, Ill.: Thomas, c1978.

Condizione: New. E. Blechschmidt, MD, (1904-1992) an anatomist and embryologist, studied the human form and the way it develops during ontogeny, principally during the first eight weeks after conception. He was the author of more than 120 scientific papers and numerous book.
