Crafted as a descriptive and visual text, Germ Cell Tumors features definitive reviews of the biology, diagnosis, and management of germ cell tumors. Incorporating extensive illustrations and tables, this book reviews the progress that has been made in the curative therapy of germ cell tumors over the past 25 years, progress that has lead to the positioning of germ cell tumor therapy as the paradigm of curative treatment in adult solid tumors. Most of the work has been produced on a multi-disciplinary basis, emphasizing the use of different diagnostic, laboratory, imaging, and management tools. In addition to a scientific and clinical review, a series of detailed discussions on the psychosocial issues, patient support, and management of the occasional problem cases that do not result in cure are featured. Germ Cell Tumors has been carefully illustrated with new photographs that illustrate diagnostic approaches, surgical techniques, and management complications. Extensive graphs and tables illustrate the results of treatment.

This is the first comprehensive reference work on toxicologic pathology, an emerging field that integrates the mechanisms of toxic injury with the resulting pathology. Chapters deal systematically with organ-specific toxic injury, describing the mechanisms of injury, morphological expression of the injury, and evaluation of the pathology. Additional chapters introduce the field to the uninitiated and address such topics as techniques used for morphological evaluation, risk assessment, and regulatory aspects. The Handbook of Toxicologic Pathology will quickly establish itself as the classic reference work in this field for years to come. - Comprehensive, "user friendly" reference text on toxicologic pathology - Large, easy-to-use 8 1/2" x 11", double-column format - Systematic approach to each organ or system - More than 500 illustrations and 90 tables complement the text - Over 2,000 references for easy access to the primary literature - Unique chapters written by leading authorities

Bruce Carlson's Human Embryology and Developmental Biology is one of the most detailed texts available for those who want to truly understand both the morphological and molecular aspects of human embryological development. Fully updated in its seventh edition, the book provides a thorough grounding in all aspects of embryology. It presents in detail the molecular and cellular basis for embryological processes, from early development through to development of body systems. It covers examples of congenital malformations and their underlying mechanisms, and comes complete with clinical vignettes and review questions to support learning. This book will suit medical and science students taking embryology courses as well as scientists and clinicians who find themselves returning to this topic throughout their careers. - Clear and consistent writing style – highly readable and well-focused - Extensively illustrated to demystify complex topics - Good selection of original photographs of congenital anomalies to assist with identification - Review questions and suggested readings for further learning - Series of animations of complex embryological processes to accompany the text explanations - Clinical correlation boxes, vignettes and summary boxes for quick revision - Many new drawings and photographs - Thoroughly updated with recent research to advance understanding - Expanded treatment of newly understood molecular pathways. - Major updates on gametes, body axis formation, placental pathology, adipose tissue, intestinal and facial development

New developments in reproductive technology have made headlines since the birth of the world's first in vitro fertilization baby in 1978. But is embryo experimentation ethically acceptable? What is the moral status of the early human embryo? And how should a democratic society deal with so controversial an issue, where conflicting views are based on differing religious and philosophical positions? These controversial questions are the subject of this book, which, as a current compendium of ideas and arguments on the subject, makes an original contribution of major importance to this debate. Peter Singer is the author of many books, including Practical Ethics (CUP, 1979), Marx (Hill & Wang, 1980), and Should the Baby Live? (co-authored with Helga Kuhse, Oxford U.P., 1986).
