[Forsythia · Rating 3 out of 5]

It's a really good textbook, but it didn't really help my effort during the exams due to the many details about the transcription factors that play major role in the development of the human embryo. It's really easy to understand, but in my opinion, it is addressed more to embryology professors and researchers than to medical students.

Es un muy buen libro, que quizá para un estudiante que se está iniciando, habla demasiado de los genes y eso puede marear. Pero leyendo con buen criterio, se hace muy sencillo.

It's a very good book, maybe for a begginer, it's too complicated sometimes because you can get lost with so many genes. But read with criteria, it's very simple to read .
