This is a moving book. A guide for
parents as well as young people, it
recounts in detail the almost magical
way in which babies evolve from the very
moment that fertilization occurs. Thanks to
new technological advances, today it is
possible to visualize and re-create images of
what happens inside a woman's body when
a sperm travels through the uterus and the
gelatinous membrane that surrounds the
egg. Incredible photos show, day by day, how
the embryo evolves, when the heart begins
to beat, and even when the brain, eyes, legs,
arms, mouth, and teeth are formed. This
book contains a wealth of information, with
photographic details that show you the
inside of the body from a totally new
viewpoint.
