The works of Francis Maitland Balfour, Volume 2 (of 4)
Francis Maitland Balfour and M. (Michael), Sir Foster
Life begins with a single fused cell, and Balfour follows that origin closely. Volume two of his works is a systematic treatise on embryology: the egg, the sperm, fertilization, and the first divisions that build an animal. A foundational text of developmental biology. Watch an organism assemble itself from the very first cell.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
