This book documents Dr. Arnold Gesell's studies of the embryo, the fetus, the neonate and the infant. First published in 1945, his observations on the growth of behavioral organization provide the bases for the maturation of motor behavior on which researchers and clinicians interested in infancy have built ever since. Superb photographs document behavior patterns, growth sequences, and fetal development from the zygote to the twenty-eight-week fetus.
