Book Overview

The third edition of Craniofacial Embryogenetics and Development is dedicated to increased understanding of normal and abnormal orofacial development by integrating embryological development with its underlying genetic information.

Author Contributions

Professor Emeritus Geoffrey H. Sperber, distinguished for producing dental education teaching resources, has contributed a new book of classical embryology integrated with modern genetics. Craniofacial Embryogenetics and Development, written with clinical geneticist Dr. Steven M. Sperber, advances the understanding of craniofacial development and the causes of dysmorphology.

Target Audience and Content

As partners, the two authors bridge basic science and clinical specialties to provide insights to direct treatments. The well-illustrated text will interest a range of practitioners, researchers, and students of anatomy, dentistry, embryology, neonatology, otorhinolaryngology, plastic and orofacial surgery, speech pathology, and teratology.
