Kaufman's Atlas of Mouse Development: With Coronal Sections continues the stellar reputation of the original Atlas by providing updated, in-depth anatomical content and morphological views of organ systems.The publication offers written descriptions of the developmental origins of the organ systems alongside high-resolution images for needed visualization of developmental processes. Matt Kaufman himself has annotated the coronal images in the same clear, meticulous style of the original Atlas. Kaufman's Atlas of Mouse Development: With Coronal Sections follows the original Atlas as a continuation of the standard in the field for developmental biologists and researchers across biological and biomedical sciences studying mouse development.

About the author
Biomedical Systems Analysis, MRC (Medical Research Council) Human Genetics Unit, University of Edinburgh Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, UKBioinformatics & Development, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UKBiomedical Systems Analysis, MRC Human Genetics Unit, University of Edinburgh Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, UKGillian Morriss-Kay is Emeritus Professor of Developmental Anatomy at the University of Oxford, where she taught embryology, histology and anatomy to medical students. Her research goal, using first rat, then mouse embryos, was to enhance understanding of normal and abnormal human development, especially of the craniofacial region and neural tube. This led to collaborative mouse-human work on the developmental genetics and morphogenesis of craniosynostosis. She was editor of the Journal of Anatomy for ten years.
