Summary: Amazing, revolutioinary images!
Comment: From Birth to Conception will satiate anyone with a visual mind as to the formation of a baby in the womb! As a medical student I can appreciate the detail and 3-dimensional insight into structural relationships within the body that cross-sectional analysis (used to make the images) affords. Tsiaras and his cast of anatomical illustrators make use of innumerable cross-sections, bringing about the most accurate depictions of the embryo. Combine that with the most advanced technologies in imaging and the outcomes are stunning. The book is great for anyone interested in embryonic development;a very understandable read as well.

Summary: Absolutely Amazing!
Comment: I picked up this book after reading the Time issue that featured some of the pictures from it. The pictures are absolutely incredible, telling the story in a way no author ever could. If a picture is worth a thousand words, these images would be novels unto themselves. The writing is interesting and informative. And, as an added bonus, I get to keep coming back to Amazon[.com] to find out what jealous Ph.D's do with their spare time. The things they grasp at to criticize this book leave me writhing on the floor in giggle fits. I especially loved the one that took issue with ordering the pictures from conception through development and then birth. Can it happen any other way? ROFLMAO! But really, check this book out; you won't be disappointed. And do come back here to read the inane drivel. It is not as well written as the book or anywhere near as fascinating as the images, but it is always worth a laugh or two.

Summary: A beautiful coffee table book
Comment: If you are looking for a shower gift for an expectant couple, this would make a lovely gift. It's full of photos of the developing baby. It would also make a wonderful gift for a very excited set of grandparents! My husband and I had a copy of this book during my pregnancy and enjoyed it thoroughly. The writing is beautiful and the photos are amazing.
