Embryos

The recent explosion in developmental biology has highlighted the need for a comprehensive, visual guide to the development of all major embryos currently being used. In this highly illustrated atlas, a group of internationally known authors review the development and significance of Arabidopsis, Dictyostelium discoideum, sea urchin, nematode worm, mollusc, leech, Drosophila, fish, toad, chick, mouse and human. Each chapter includes sections on the advantages of the embryo as an experimental system, an illustrated description of normal development, well-known developmental mutants, discussion of experimental manipulations, the future potential for the embryo and key references. Embryos: Color Atlas of Development brings together a wealth of developmental information, illustrated with 600 high-quality color pictures. The atlas is a key resource for understanding the molecular basis of development, and will be invaluable in helping developmental biologists working with one animal understand the details of embryogenesis in other organisms. This is an essential book for all students, researchers and lecturers teaching and working in the field of developmental biology.
