This time-tested biology text covers all the basics of development in animals (with one chapter on plants by Susan Singer), beginning with life cycles and developmental patterns and moving through embryonic development, with a closing section on the ramifications of developmental biology. Gilbert (Swarthmore College) includes discussions of vertebrates and invertebrates, the development of the central nervous system, sex determination, and aging. The enclosed CD-ROM features 130 interactive videos and 300 photographs to accompany both the text and the experimental guidebook. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
