Here`s a rich pictorial review of normal and abnormal human prenatal
development. For each body system or region, you`ll find a brief
description of the developmental plan, with key concepts and
terminology, followed by discussions of histological principles, the
classification of congenital defects, and basic cellular, molecular, and
genetic concepts. An emphasis on morphological patterns in the embryo
and fetus makes it easy to understand the structure and function of the
adult body and the embryonic basis of birth defects.
