Preface

The Book at a Glance

This guidebook begins with a discussion of the tools you need for studying developing organisms and moves on through the events of development, first in simple and then in more complex organisms. The chapters include extensive background information, and suggestions for experiments. Students use this information to design their own experiments. Each chapter has a list of suppliers and an annotated bibliography.

The Third Edition 

A third edition will be coming out that will be included in PDF format on the Vade Mecum CD-ROM.

A new chapter on Zebrafish is included in this edition.

Also, a glossary has been added for each chapter. These glossaries can also be found on this website.
