Elsevier España, 2001 - 548 páginas
The fully updated new edition of this acclaimed reference details the concepts and principles that underlie human development. Each stage is clearly described in a logical, step-by-step fashion, helping readers grasp the complex processes involved. This title enjoys a broad appeal, as it has a solid clinical component but is also very strong in the molecular biological aspects of the subject, including separate sections in each chapter on both clinical reference and experimental studies. Superb photographs, electron micrographs, and colourful three-dimensional illustrations demonstrate the origin of structures and tissues. Dr Larson also continues to maintain a supporting web site, which has proved very popular amongst both tutors and students and combines to provide readers with a state-of-the-art knowledge of the field.
  • Examines the latest advances in the understanding of regulatory genes and their specific impact on embryologic development.
  • Relates development to clinical problems with separate sections on clinical applications and experimental principles - fully revised to accommodate many new developments
  • Features a modular design that allows readers to choose the way they approach the material.
  • Depicts the development of all major structures and organ systems from conception to birth with brilliantly illustrated timelines in each chapter.
  • Makes study easier with detailed chapter summaries as well as sentence-style headings that highlight important content.
  • Facilitates further research with current references.
  • Offers readers a wealth of animations and interactive exercises--as well as access to up-to-the-minute advances--on the Human Embryology web site, www.med.uc.edu/embryology.
