The new third edition of Gene Activity in Early Development reflects the ten years of technological progress since the last edition. Providing a unique blend of classical and molecular knowledge, it discusses all major embryonic systems from both a comparative and mechanistic point of view. In deriving overall interpretations of developmental phenomena, it brings into play all the disparate forms of evidence, including genetic, molecular, and cytological.**This book is written for any serious student or scholar entering the field, whether his or her background is in genetics, molecular biology, or embryology.
(1) This is a textbook for adoption in undergraduate and graduate level courses on developmental biology. (2) As a professional monograph, it will be of interest to the whole range of cell and molecular biologists and geneticists.
From Genome to Embryo: The Regulation of Gene Activity in Early Development. The Nature and Function of Maternal Transcripts.
