4.0 out of 5 stars short and to the point!, May 6, 2004
By 
"ascgrizzly" (Alamosa, CO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Principles of Developmental Biology (Hardcover)
This is a great textbook for developmental biology students, or for people looking for general information on the subject! The text contains background "boxes" with information on genetics and biochemistry so you dont really need background knowledge in those subjects to understand the content of the book. It is short, so it doesn't go into too much detail but there's enough information to understand the concepts! This text is not like most texts where they are so boring and hard to read that you just give up. It's fairly easy reading and keeps things interesting enough to read the assigned pages.
