i read this book for usmle prep...it was pretty good...but had way too much information for usmle 1....i would reccomend using FA's embryo section as a guide...and read only sections in high yield that are represented in first aid(FA)...over all decent book...but overkill for usmle 1...
 Great summary! October 13, 2005

This book nicely complemented my Gross Anatomy and Embryology class and reiterated/clarified concepts that were conveyed in lecture. It also portrays great pictures of actual clinical cases. I would highly recommend this book to anyone!
Maybe overkill, but contains everything you need to know June 7, 2004

This book covers all the important info you need to know for Step 1. Its clinical scenarios are the gem of this book. It does however contain more than you need to know for this infrequently tested subject. But for any embryology book out there, this is the one.
 Only good for USMLE review. February 8, 2002

This book is too concise to study from for your medical course. It has no explanation of the facts or theories whatsoever. It is perfect once you've already learnt Embryology (from another book), and wish to simply review the facts. But if you are studying Embryology for the first time, consider: Moore & Persaud - Before We Are Born, Larsen - Human Embryology, and Sadler - Larsen's Medical Embryology.Personally this is one book I would not want on my bookshelf, because I do not believe in buying books simply for review. I want a reference, something I can go back to when I need to check something.
Better than the newer edition. November 14, 2001

This book is much more concise than the revised edition. For being a low-yield subject on the boards, I would not waste my time on the expanded, newer version. This one is more than adequate.
