Produktbeschreibung

The `Formation of the Heart and its Regulation` reviews in considerabledetail the major events in heart development and their control viagenes, cell-cell interactions, growth factors and other contributingelements. In addition, there is an extensive and useful overview of thefield of heart development taken as a whole.The book will appeal to all students and researchers working oncardiovascular development and to pediatric cardiologists.
