Reviews
"The latest edition of Developmental Biology is a significantly revised version of a modern classis. This textbook provides a diversity of views on how a single cell can give rise to a multicellular organism, enhancing learning with clear prose, colorful images, didactic diagrams, and links to multimedia resources. . . . for students or professors who need a well-rounded, clearly written overview of developmental biology principles this is the mostcomprehensive textbook currently available." --Kara Cerveny, The Quarterly Review of Biology"Developmental Biology, Eleventh Edition successfully teaches the basis of development in a manner that is digestible and intriguing. It is useful for students who enjoy traditional as well as modern approaches to pedagogy. By systematically reviewing concepts in development, integrating web resources, and providing expansive applications about the subject matter, the textbook is valuable for readers interested in the field." --Jessica S.

Synopsis
Now in its eleventh edition, Developmental Biology maintains the writing, accuracy, and enthusiasm of previous editions, while streamlined coverage, a new co-author, and innovative electronic supplements bring this text to a new generation., A classic gets a new coauthor and a new approach: Developmental Biology, Eleventh Edition, keeps the excellent writing, accuracy, and enthusiasm of the Gilbert Developmental Biology book, streamlines it, adds innovative electronic supplements, and creates a new textbook for those teaching Developmental Biology to a new generation. Several new modes of teaching are employed in the new Gilbert and Barresi textbook. The videos explaining development--as well as those from Mary Tyler's Vade Mecum--are referenced throughout the book, and several other valuable new elements have been added., A classic gets a new coauthor and a new approach: Developmental Biology , Eleventh Edition, keeps the excellent writing, accuracy, and enthusiasm of the Gilbert Developmental Biology book, streamlines it, adds innovative electronic supplements, and creates a new textbook for those teaching Developmental Biology to a new generation. Several new modes of teaching are employed in the new Gilbert and Barresi textbook. The videos explaining development--as well as those from Mary Tyler's Vade Mecum --are referenced throughout the book, and several other valuable new elements have been added. Additional updates include: * An increased emphasis on stem cells, which are covered extensively and early in the book. * Sex determination and gametogenesis, instead of being near the end of the volume, are up front, prior to fertilization. * Greatly expanded coverage of neural development, comprising a unit unto itself. * Coverage of new experiments on morphogenesis and differentiation, as well as new techniques such as CRISPR. For Students Companion Website Significantly enhanced for the eleventh edition, and referenced throughout the textbook, the Developmental Biology Companion Website provides students with a range of engaging resources, in the following categories: * NEW Dev Tutorials: Professionally produced video tutorials, presented by the textbook's authors, reinforces key concepts. * NEW Watch Development: Putting concepts into action, these informative videos show real-life developmental biology processes. * Web Topics: These extensive topics provide more information for advanced students, historical, philosophical, and ethical perspectives on issues in developmental biology, and links to additional online resources. * NEW Scientists Speak: In these question-and-answer interviews, developmental biology topics are explored by leading experts in the field. * Plus the full bibliography of literature cited in the textbook (most linked to their PubMed citations). DevBio Laboratory: Vade Mecum3 Included with each new copy of the textbook, Vade Mecum3 is an interactive website that helps students understand the organisms discussed in the course, and prepare them for the lab. The site includes videos of developmental processes and laboratory techniques, and has chapters on the following organisms: slime mold ( Dictyostelium discoideum ), planarian, sea urchin, fruit fly ( Drosophila ), chick, and amphibian. For Instructors Instructor's Resource Library (available to qualified adopters) The Developmental Biology , Eleventh Edition, Instructor's Resource Library includes the following resources: * NEW Developing Questions: Answers, references, and recommendations for further reading are provided so that you and your students can explore the Developing Questions that are posed throughout each chapter. * Textbook Figures & Tables: All of the textbook's figures, photos, and tables are provided both in JPEG (high- and low-resolution) and PowerPoint formats. All images have been optimized for excellent legibility when projected in the classroom. * Video Collection: Includes video segments depicting a wide range of developmental processes, plus segments from DevBio Laborator y: Vade Mecum3 , and Differential Experessions2 . * Vade Mecum3 PowerPoints: Chick serial sections and whole mounts, provided in both labeled and unlabeled versions, for use in creating quizzes,
