3.0 out of 5 stars Comparative review of 3 embryology textbooks, August 31, 2002
By Kenneth Saladin (Milledgeville, GA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Developing Human: Clinically Oriented Embryology (Paperback)
I have discussed this book in a comparative review of three human embryology texts:

Moore & Persaud, The Developing Human
Larsen, Essentials of Human Embryology
Sadler, Langman's Medical Embryology

This review can be found on the Amazon.com site under Sadler (ISBN 0-683-30650-2). In brief, I found Sadler to be the clearest and most useful of these three books, and Moore & Persaud to be the richest in clinical content but otherwise not as good as the other two.

2.0 out of 5 stars A compilation of errors: textual and graphical, March 21, 2001
By "cooney@medicine.tamu.edu" (Temple, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Developing Human: Clinically Oriented Embryology (Paperback)
I am a medical student at Texas A&M USHSC COM. This text is one of the worst I have ever owned. It is wrought with errors. There are numerous errors in the text. The diagrams are confusing and many are actually wrong. The wordy nature of the book is also a problem for most medical students, as the yield appears to be low (unlike Moore's: Clinically Oriented Anatomy). This text is listed as a required text at many medical schools, however, it should not be. Instead, I suggest *Langman's Medical Embryology. This is a much better choice for all interested in a clear and correct understanding of clinical embryology.

3.0 out of 5 stars DENSE, November 10, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Developing Human: Clinically Oriented Embryology (Paperback)
This is definitely a comprehensive book with lots of illustrations and clinical correlations. But it is very dense and difficult to get high yield information from...at least in the time your typical first year medical student has to master embryology.

Good book. Better than Langeman's (SP?), which is just a bunch of droning about pathways. This is more developmental biology on a macro level.

4.0 out of 5 stars Easy to all people, including non-medical students
I highly recommend this book to all starters at embryology. But don't forget to buy an extra atlas, since the diagrams in this book need lots of imagination to understand.
