Morphogenesis is the set of processes that generate shape and
form in the embryo--an important area within developmental biology.
An exciting and up-to-the-minute account of the very latest
research into the factors that create biological form, "Mechanisms
of Morphogenesis," second edition is a text reference on the
mechanisms of cell and tissue morphogenesis in a diverse array of
organisms, including prokaryotes, animals, plants and fungi.
By combining hard data with computer modeling, "Mechanisms of
Morphogenesis," second edition equips readers with a much broader
understanding of the scope of modern research than is otherwise
available. The book focuses on the ways in which the genetic
program is translated to generate cell shape, to direct cell
migration, and to produce the shape, form and rates of growth of
the various tissues. Each topic is illustrated with experimental
data from real systems, with particular reference to gaps in
current knowledge and pointers to future
* Includes over 200 four-color figures
* Offers an integrated view of theoretical developmental biology
and computer modelling with laboratory-based discoveries
* Covers experimental techniques as a guide to the reader
* Organized around principles and mechanisms, using them to
integrate discoveries from a range of organisms and systems
