An Atlas of Human Female Reproductive Function : Ovarian Development to Early Embryogenesis After In-Vitro Fertilization

Bridging the gap between basic science and clinical practice, Atlas
of Human Female Reproductive Function is a comprehensive compilation
of three-dimensional, color-enhanced images of the ovary and female
reproductive function.

Practical and clearly presented, this book:

blends the latest scientific research with in-depth coverage
discusses biological evolution and human female reproductive
physiology
explores female reproductive function from early ovarian development
to in-vitro fertilization and early embryogenesis.
Obtained using the most advanced transmission and high-resolution
scanning electron microscopy techniques, the images presented provide
complete and detailed renditions of ovarian developments and
embryogenesis - ensuring that the atlas will be of maximum use to
embryologists, morphologists, pathologists and physicians interested
in basic and clinical reproductive functions. An important, highly
useful resource, this book belongs in the waiting rooms of every
reproductive endocrinology/IVF program.
