Dr. Kalthoff is Very Erudite

In this fine text we see a very keen and erudite analysis of the discipline of Developmental Biology as it stands today. The author, Dr. Klaus Kalthoff, uses up to the minute information on the subject matter, and has a very nice prose style. The text is liberally interspersed with intelligible and intelligently thought out illustrations which will help the reader more fully comprehend this fascinating subject. A good example is the very nice cover illustration portraying the similarity between the molecular pathways of the frog and the fly.
