Von der hinteren Coverseite

This Third Edition continues a tradition of excellence in the study of the prenatal human brain

Praise for the Second Edition:

"A really beautiful and wonderfully informative book that no embryologist, comparative anatomist, pediatric neurologist, or neurosurgeon should be without. Putting aside the medical relevance of this atlas, it also provides the most captivating version of one of the most complex and fascinating embryological stories of all."
