商品簡介
Sperber (medicine and dentistry, U. of Alberta, Canada) et al. describe genes that influence facial development and maldevelopment, for individuals in anatomy, embryology, plastic and orofacial surgery, otolaryngology, orthodontics, pediatrics, dentistry, speech pathology, and other health care fields wishing to understand the diagnosis, prognosis, prevention, and cure of developmental disparities of the craniofacial area. The book is divided into two sections: general embryology and specific areas of craniofacial development. Adding two additional authors, this edition has a new chapter on craniofacial disorders with known single gene mutations, a companion website, identification of genes expressed in development, and embryological explanation of dysmorphology, teratology, and developmental syndromes. It also has new color illustrations, a new title (the previous being Craniofacial Development), and all chapters have been updated and revised.
