Description
Summary:This atlas illustrates the developmental stages of various parts of the spine and pelvis and all appendicular joints in the human locomotor system. Color photographs are accompanied by short, explanatory text, and all regions are shown at identical time periods; in this way the reader can easily follow the growth and compare stages of development. The microphotographs are chosen from the author's personal collection of well over 350 spontaneously aborted human embryos and fetuses. The last chapter focuses on developmental variations and malformations.
