Embryology has been greatly reduced in coverage by medical and other health education programs and yet no texts are available that match this approach to the topic-until now.

Langman's Essential Medical Embryology provides the missing link by combining a condensed, but thorough, description of the subject with superb illustrations, both new and from Langman's Medical Embryology, 9th Edition.

Together with Simbryo, the incomparable embryology animations program, these resources supply the essential teaching tools for today's course in embryology.

Features and highlights includes:

• Eleven chapters cover basic principles of development, early development, embryogenesis, development of musculoskeletal system, central nervous system, heart, face, eye/ear, lungs and gut, kidneys and genital system, and fetal period and birth
• Emphasis is placed on illustrating development, with the minimum necessary amount of supporting text, helping students to focus on the key concepts
  
• Over 450 figures, including full-color illustrations and clinical images, mostly taken from the renowned Langman's Medical Embryology, 9th Edition
  
• Clinical correlations provide students with valuable tools to help them understand the clinical implications of embryology
  
• Large 9X12 format allows illustrations to be prominently presented
  
• Packaged with Simbryo Version 1.1, a suite of six animations showing three-dimensional embryologic development over time, helping students grasp spatial relationship in human development
