The Atlas of Chick Development, Third Edition, a classic work covering all major event of chick development, is extensively updated with new and more detailed photographs, enlargements showing regions of special-interest and complexity, and new illustrations. The revised text and expanded illustrative material describe the intricate changes that take place during development, together with accounts of recent experimental and molecular research that has transformed our understanding of morphogenesis. These wide-ranging updates make this book an essential resource for developmental biologists, geneticists, molecular biologists, poultry scientists, biochemists, immunologists, and other life scientists who use the chick embryo as their research model. Individuals joining this burgeoning area, ignited by the increased insight into events surrounding organ and tissue differentiation, will find this a valuable tool to help grow a basic knowledge of morphogenesis. Remains the established standard—the only book providing a comprehensive description of chick development from fertilization to hatching Contains more than 750 photographs and illustrations, including 410 labelled histological sections and 85 new high-quality plates, showing the major anatomical events from the earliest stages to 13 days of incubation Includes more than 200 labelled and detailed scanning electron micrographs, showing various tissues in great detail Leads the reader to important reviews on aspects of this rapidly moving field, along with extensive and updated references

There has not been a book like this for fifty years. In addition to many drawings and plates, the book contains discussions of general chick development and details of the research techniques used. This reference work is essential for researchers studying development and for molecular biologists and biochemists coming to the chick embryo for the first time. It is aimed at researchers, such as molecular geneticists, who wish to use the chick as their standard system, but need instruction on the developmental detail or techniques to use.

For the convenience of research workers, particularly those with limited knowledge of embryology, we have put together a series of tables to enable rapid identification of specific stages of embryonic development in the more commonly used mammals. Because if its frequent usage the chick embryo is included this atlas.

This outstanding work is the only modern book devoted to the chick embryo and has been an essential resource for geneticists, molecular and developmental biologists, and other life scientists who use the chick embryo as their research model. This new enlarged and updated second edition is published in response to continuing demand. The text provides a detailed description of development, from fertilization to hatching, with emphasis on the earlier stages though also covering individual organ systems in detail. There are reviews of the more recent molecular research and a new section highlighting the important landmarks in the history of chick embryology which have had an impact on our understanding of developmental processes. The book is beautifully illustrated with 74 text-figures and over 500 photographs, including nearly 200 new scanning electron micrographs. Updated and expanded text to accompany diagrams More than 200 new labelled scanning electron micrographs showing individual tissues in great detail Reviews of recent molecular research Discusses the roles of genes such as Hox genes, BMPs, and sonic hedgehog during early development New sections on genetical anomalies, techniques, and the poultry industry

Kaufman's Atlas of Mouse Development: With Coronal Sections continues the stellar reputation of the original Atlas by providing updated, in-depth anatomical content and morphological views of organ systems.The publication offers written descriptions of the developmental origins of the organ systems alongside high-resolution images for needed visualization of developmental processes. Matt Kaufman himself has annotated the coronal images in the same clear, meticulous style of the original Atlas. Kaufman's Atlas of Mouse Development: With Coronal Sections follows the original Atlas as a continuation of the standard in the field for developmental biologists and researchers across biological and biomedical sciences studying mouse development. Provides high-resolution images for best visualization of key developmental processes and structures Offers in-depth anatomy and morphological views of organ systems Written descriptions convey developmental origins of the organ systems

The complex but fascinating field of embryology is presented in this easy-to-understand Thieme Flexibook, complete with 176 color plates. Since the information relevant to medical students is separated from that needed by biologists, both can learn in a focused and time-saving manner. The overview at the beginning of each chapter is also an excellent aid to students. Physicians, biologists and students can delve into any number of topics: from the basics of reproductive biology to general embryology, including the "hot topics" related to cellular and molecular biology.
