Summary: "The basic purpose of teaching/learning in embryology is to understand the genesis of congenital malformations, so that they can be prevented, once we understand the cause. For example, “Thalidomide” causing limb malformations or folic acid deficiency associated with neural tube defects. Clinical photographs of some of these malformations have been incorporated in the book, which offers better understanding and visual impact. The book contains a total of 19 chapters, with the addition of a new chapter on “Gametogenesis and Menstrual Cycle.” Each chapter begins with the competencies covered in the chapter, followed by learning objectives, keywords, introduction, and necessary text, duly clubbed with illustrations. At the end of each chapter, multiple-choice questions (MCQs) and brief answer questions (BAQs) have been provided to equip the students for examinations." -- Provided by publisher.
