Average Rating: 
Rating: - Not a good idea to get this book!
This book falls into the category of way too much! Sometimes the BRS series is the best thing in the world, and sometimes it just bites. Unfortunally this book falls into the later. It is overwhelming to try and read through. It is ridden with detail after detail that makes it horribly difficult to read. It isn't even feasible to use this book along with class because it would take longer to read through this book then take the class that only last a couple weeks. Getting straight to the point, ...

Rating: - Embryo BRS
This book is good. However, it's downfall is the lack of illustrative pictures to help the student understand the massive amount of development that occurs. More diagrams would've been nie, but the amount of information there is a plethora and enough for one to understand the development that occurs due the fetal period.
Rating: - it is what it is
It's fairly straight forward and to the point -what it formed when, what can go wrong and what does it mean for classes/boards. There is a bit more than that but a few colored pencils and a good once-through makes this a great quick reference book any time after that. I review the corresponding chapters as I am going through my systems courses to cut to the chase and get past some of the fluff of lectures. Could be better but worth the price.
Rating: - Essential aid for the Embryo section on the boards
Overall, a very good book for mastering the embryology part for the Step 1 test. No other embryology text is needed for the boards other than this. This book is far more sufficient. Just make sure you actually know the material from this BRS text to smooth sail this section on the USMLE exam! It is a must to have for Step 1.
Rating: - Good overall review
Works well for those who have already studied the material in a textbook and are just reviewing the basics.
