The neural crest in development and evolution

by Brian Keith Hall

"This book is about the neural crest and neural crest cells, dealing with their discovery, their embryological and evolutionary origins, their cellular derivatives - in both agnathan and jawed vertebrates or gnathostomes - and the broad topics of migration and differentiation in normal development."--BOOK JACKET. "Neuroscientists, cell and developmental biologists, and evolutionary biologists, whether advanced undergraduates, graduate students or researchers, will find this an invaluable guide to this subject."--BOOK JACKET.
