Human Reproductive Biology
The fourth edition of Human Reproductive Biology emphasizes the
biological and biomedical aspects of human reproduction, explains advances in reproductive
science and discusses the choices and concerns of today. Generously illustrated in full
color, the text provides current information about human reproductive anatomy and
physiology. This expansive text covers the full range of topics in human reproduction,
from the biology of male and female systems to conception, pregnancy, labor and birth. It
goes on to cover issues in fertility and its control, population growth and family
planning, induced abortion and sexually transmitted diseases. This is the ideal book for
courses on human reproductive biology, with chapter introductions, sidebars on related
topics, chapter summaries and suggestions for further reading. * Beautifully redrawn
full-color illustrations complement completely updated material with the latest research
results, and clear, logical presentation of topics * Covers the basic science of
reproduction - endocrinology, anatomy, physiology, development, function and senescence of
the reproductive system - as well as applied aspects including contraception, infertility
and diseases of the reproductive system * New companion website features full-color
illustrations as PPT and jpeg files for both professors and students to use for study and
presentations "This is a useful addition to the field of reproductive biology. Since
the publication of the previous edition, numerous advances have been made in the study of
human reproduction.
The authors have updated and revised their book with the goal of providing the latest
available findings. They have done a superb job of creating a readable, aesthetically
appealing textbook that provides a comprehensive overview of human reproductive
biology."--DOODY'S, 5 Stars! "Elegantly written, profusely illustrated, and
comprehensively revised to keep pace with rapidly moving research frontiers, the new
edition of Jones and Lopez's Human Reproductive Biology is the text of
choice for any college-level course in human reproduction. New material has been
skillfully integrated into what was already a successful book. New illustrations and
well-designed boxes and side-panels enliven the text while updated references guide
students into the primary literature. This new edition easily laps the
competition."--Peter T. Ellison, Harvard University "This text is a
comprehensive treatment of a highly significant area of science that will be greatly
appreciated by reproductive biologists and anyone else with an interest in human
reproductive biology.
The text provides an entree into virtually every aspect of human reproductive biology,
from classical paradigms to contemporary ideas and approaches. The presentation is clear
and the illustrations useful. This is an excellent effort by only two authors."--Paul
M. Wassarman, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York "This is clearly the best text
on Reproduction available. Jones and Lopez have carefully analyzed and integrated and
years of classical work on reproductive biology and transformed it into a very readable
book on human reproduction. Although I have been teaching a course on human reproduction
for the last sixteen years, and I have reviewed 3 different texts on this subject, I
learned something new the first time I perused the new edition of Jones and
Lopez."--Cliff Jones, School of Medicine, University of South Dakota "This is
the most comprehensive text on human reproduction I've read. It covers not only the basic
biology of reproduction but also perspectives from evolution and across cultures, as well
as practical information that will be useful to all readers, whether students, teachers,
or researchers. It's certainly the best textbook for anthropology and evolution courses
dealing with reproduction."--Wendy Trevathan, New Mexico State University
