| I found this book extraordinarily helpful in my medical school.<br>This book amazed me again when I found that the author has another embryology text book with additions of miracles about embryology mentioned in the Islamic text 1400 years ago, visit http://islamicbookstore.com/b6147.html.
I absolutely agree with Michelle Lee (one of the reviewers above) that it is essential to SEE what is happening when you study Embryology. This book does a great job in that sense and I highly recommend it.
In bried to say that the book is not only well written and presented it also makes the subject very easy to understand.<p>Used it for my anatomy and pathophysiology lectures. A very good book indead for someone who has just started studying the subject. |

| I got this book in hope that it would answer some of my questions about embryology. It's a tough topic to learn in college.
<br />
<br />This book helps in that it has really clear diagrams and good explanations of how and where things fold/migrate and move and so on....I've done plenty of searching on the web and I can't find any other recent vet embryology book specifically for students that isn't from the eighties.
<br />
<br />If you do would you let me know?
<br />
<br />Overall I'm very happy with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone wishing to learn about embryology in animals. |

| This is not what I was expecting when I ordered this book. It really didn't help me with my studying for the course that I was taking. I don't recommend this book if you are in a dental hygiene program, it was of no help what so ever. I ended up returning the book as it wasn't what I was expecting. |

| This book is an excellent introductory book on embryology for doctors, medical students, professional students or anyone with an interest in the subject. Clearly written and fabulously illustrated, this book is the best entry-level embryology book I've seen (and I've seen a few). |

| I bought this book for first year dental. This book has the best pictures and dissections. It is very detailed yet easy to read. I highly recommend it.
Berkovitz and coworkers provide pictures, pictures, pictures of exquisite quality. There is no more successful method for teaching histology than through numerous sections coupled with a de-emphasis on description. This text is like having a microscope at your fingertips and pre-dental/medical and graduate students rave about the book. Given the embryological format, the macro and micro portions dovetail quite well. Some dissapointing picture quality of head and neck structures and dental gross anatomy photographs are too small to grasp occlusal morphology. The comparative mammalian dental anatomy section is nice. Missing only is exposure to forensic odontology as applied responsibility for both clinician and academician to explore.
I found this text useful as a reference text as a dental educator. It is comprehensive and the color histological references are very clearly presented. The photographs of the teeth, as well as the gross anatomical sections, seem slightly out of focus in this edition. Information is presented with references that are further useful and up to date, especially when considering research in the hard dental and neural tissues. I refer to it constantly in my studies. |

| Know these Vignettes! Nothing more to say. They will be tested over. Period :) Another low yield subject, but points are points.
I didn't like anatomy very much because I found the subject matter pretty dry. I thought this case-based review was a great way to review anatomy and several of the high-yield facts appeared on my Step 1 exam (Feb. 2004). Probably best used by those seeking to do above average on the exam. Excellent explanations and figures.
This book on anatomy and embryology was written by an author who is a resident in radiology. I would check the facts of the book with a real book written by someone with real credentials in the given subject. I had to check the facts for the Recall series, which also was written by a resident - an orthopedic resident composing a book on Pathology Recall. |

| It's about time. There has never been a more lucid account of the normal and abnormal processes of human development. Netter's illustrations combined with Cochard's succinct text and learning aids go far beyond any other books published to help further the understanding of embryology.
This is a new and welcome addition to the Netter family of publications. IMHO, the real utility of Netter publications lies in the rendition of the plates. As an embryological atlas, this volume leaves somethings to be desired. Aside from this caveat, the images are a wonderful addition to the littany of "standard" figures that are ususally the same figure repeated with minor variations. <p>The use of color is of particular value in understanding the development of structures where boundaries between transient elements is indistinct. These make a nice adjunct to the more conventional texts.<p>This is a teaching book that will be of greatest use to those who have already grasped the basic elements of human embryology. They illustrate conceptually complex topics and are thus of real utility. I don't see this as a primary text, since it contains a great deal of anatomical, pathological and teratological images as well. |
