This book is the culmination of an international collaboration of zoologists to describe the embryology of Xenopus, including the origins of the organ systems, with the purpose of promoting the use of Xenopus as a model amphibian for embryological study.

In recent decades, Susan Oyama and her colleagues in the burgeoning field of developmental systems theory have rejected the determinism inherent in the nature/nurture debate, arguing that behavior cannot be reduced to distinct biological or environmental causes.
A biophysicist reveals the hidden unity behind nature's breathtaking complexityThe form and function of a sprinting cheetah are quite unlike those of a rooted tree.
A provocative and timely case for how the science of genetics can help create a more just and equal societyIn recent years, scientists like Kathryn Paige Harden have shown that DNA makes us different, in our personalities and in our health-and in ways that matter for educational and economic success in our current society.
The first modern scholarly synthesis of animal domesticationAcross the globe and at different times in the past millennia, the evolutionary history of domesticated animals has been greatly affected by the myriad, complex, and diverse interactions humans have had with the animals closest to them.
This volume of the Springer book series Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology covers potency assays, one of the most complex yet fundamental evaluations that critically influence stem cell regenerative medicine.

An indispensable guide to the revolutionary advances in pregnancy and childbirth, Taking Charge of Your Pregnancycontains trailblazing science that explains:Why the first eight weeks are the most important and how to optimize themWhich prenatal genetic tests are riskfree and which are a waste of moneyWhy miscarriages are common and the preventive steps future moms can takeWhen to be concerned about nauseaWhat pregnant women can learn from their own mother's birth storiesWhat to do about pain during labor and deliveryAfter decades of research into how babies develop in the womb, Susan J.
Oogenesis - the process by which female germ cells develop into mature eggs, or ova - is a complex process involving many important elements of developmental and cellular biology: from cell-cell interactions, complex signalling cascades, specialized cell cycles and cytoskeleton organization.
Examines the establishment of the germ layers and other cell lineages in the early embryo including details of cell movements during the beginning stages of primitive streak formation.
Examines the progress of leading scientists working on various aspects of handedness in order to consider the occurrence of handedness in the biological world.
This book collects the most effective and cutting-edge methods and protocols for deriving and culturing human embryonic and adult stem cells in one handy resource.
Advances in Genetics serial, Volume 110 highlights new advances in the field, with this new volume presenting interesting chapters on a variety of timely topics, all written by an international board of authors.
This Lecture Notes Volume represents the first time any of the summer school lectures have been collected and published on a discrete subject rather than grouping all of a season's lectures together.
