Book Reviews of From Conception to Birth: A Life Unfolds

Book Review: More than just pictures...
Summary: 4 Stars

This is indeed an extremely informative and interesting book full of colourful images that allow you to comprehend exactly how the human foetus develops within its mother.

Very useful piece of reading if you know nothing about the human growth process. This book covers every aspect of the development process showing clear images of the various stages. ie 4 weeks, 8 weeks etc.

The text is easy to read and digest. It takes the reader into a more detailed and indepth overview of each vital component, its dependencies and function.

Further information relating to digestion, organs, oxygen, toxins, waste elimination, movement, nervous system, blood pressure, sensory development and human architecture are all covered in some detail.

A good addition to anyone's collection that certainly won't grow outdated. Excellent gift idea!
