This Basic Concepts title sheds light on the most elusive concepts in embryology and does so in a concise, lively manner. The level of detail is geared directly to that which is required by students in a way which esily accesses the most relevant information. The book utilizes jargon-free language and innovative teaching techniques to promote an understanding of concepts--not just the rote memorization of facts. To further enhance comprehension, text and illustrations accompany each other on the same or facing pages.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Clear excellent overview of embryology
If you are looking for a clearly presented explanation of the concepts of embryology this book is an excellent choice. While embryology is a complex subject, many of the standard texts and treatises unnecessarily obscure the topic by using verbose and obtuse prose. The author uses direct and relatively straightforward text that makes it much easier to learn about this fascinating subject.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Good for class Not for Boards
This book offers a very detailed explanation of embryology in an easy to read format. It breaks embryo out of the 1960s format that our medical school taught in, but it is too much information for the boards. Embryo is good for cardio and GI and this book would be a good reference but don't use it for boards. You would be better off with High Yield.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Basic Concepts in Embryology: A Student's Survival Guide
This book is extremely helpful as a supplement to textbook readings. It definitely meets the objective of placing the primary concepts UP FRONT! Using this book, I was better able to focus my study, prepare for exams, and drastically improve my grade. I feel this book works best as a supplement, due to very recent advances in embryological study that are not included in this book.
