The Development of Animal Form integrates traditional morphological and contemporary molecular genetic approaches to evolutionary developmental biology or ''evo-devo''.
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.
Originally published in 1899, The History of Creation was the first book of its kind to apply a doctrine to the whole range of organic morphology and make use of the effect Darwin had on biological sciences during the 19th century.

Gives an account of the morphologies of vertebrate respiratory organs and attempts to explicate the basis of the common and different structural and functional designs and stratagems that have evolved for acquisition of molecular oxygen.
Dramatic changes in the environment, including habitat degradation and climate change, have focused attention on how individuals and populations respond to a shifting biotic and abiotic landscape.
This new manual provides a convenient source of experimental procedures, including the most modern and frequently used molecular and cellular techniques.
This detailed volume explores techniques for the study of neurogenic niches and neural lineage progression, specifically addressing major methodological challenges in studying neural stem cells (NSCs) and related cell populations, such as astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and neurons.
The Geometric Induction of Bone Formation describes new biomimetic biomaterials that offer mechanistic osteogenic surfaces for the autonomous and spontaneous induction of bone formation without the addition of osteogenic soluble molecular signals of the transforming growth factor- supergene family.

The molecular mechanisms, which are responsible for the functional differences between the various types of neuronal synapses, have become one of the central themes of modern neurobiology.
Molecular biology emerged from advances in biochemistry during the 1940s and 1950s, when the structure of the nucleic acids and proteins were elucidated.
