ISBN: 156032936X ISBN-13: 9781560329367 Publisher: CRC Press OUR PRICE: $75.95 Product Type: Paperback - Other Formats Published: April 2002 Annotation: "Molecular Embryology" explains in simple terms the molecular interactions that transform an egg to a complex embryo that in the end gives rise to a fully-formed animal. In doing so, the book covers 150 years of experiments that have led to our present understanding of these molecular interactions. As the text moves along, the reader will gain a sense of the developmental similarities and differences of organisms. Students studying developmental biology and embryology will find this book an effective introduction, and the book will also interest others who want to understand recent advances in the subject. |

| Publisher Description: Molecular Embryology explains in simple terms the molecular interactions that transform an egg to a complex embryo that in the end gives rise to a fully-formed animal. In doing so, the book covers one hundred and fifty years of experiments that have led to our present understanding of these molecular interactions. As the text progresses, the reader will gain a sense of the developmental similarities and differences between organisms. Students studying developmental biology and embryology will find this book an extremely useful introduction to the subject and will also appeal to anyone with an interest in the most recent advances in this largely undiscovered territory. |
