Atlas of Human Prenatal Morphogenesis

Focusing on the intricate process of prenatal human development, this book explores the genetic and biochemical interactions that shape embryonic growth. It highlights the significance of molecular organization and the role of gene activation in differentiation, presenting a complex picture of human morphogenesis. Using direct photographs from legal medical abortions, it aims to provide a realistic account of normal development while employing modern techniques such as histochemistry and scanning electron microscopy. The text is designed to be accessible, avoiding overly detailed anatomical descriptions.
