Description
The central theme of this book is that an understanding of human developmental biology, both normal and abnormal, cannot progress without the alliance of clinical medicine with research in comparative morphology and embryology, teratology, developmental genetics, molecular biology and pathology. Blastogenesis is a particularly important stage of embryogenesis for study because abnormalities of blastogenesis tend to be severe, multiple and frequently lethal, thus affording geneticists and dysmorphologists an opportunity to study genetic defects in early development
