  Embryology is an essential component of health science and will continue to be so. Human Embryology is a concise, beautifully illustrated textbook that will complement the teaching of anatomy, providing nursing and midwifery students with the essentials of early human development and an understanding of congenital malformations. Features: * Concise, reflecting the new core curriculum. * Approaches embryology regionally to complement topographical anatomy teaching and to give a full understanding of the development of the whole body, but also accessible by system. * Beautifully illustrated by Gillian Lee, one of Britain' leading medical illustrators, with three-colour line drawings that give a consistent view of the developing fetus. * Embryology has its own vocabulary: a glossary of 480 embryological terms provides essential definitions with clear chapter references.
