Human Reproduction: From basics to Biotechnology

Editat de Marc yeste
en Limba Engleză Hardback – iun 2026
Human Reproduction: From Basics to Biotechnology is a complete reference for anyone in the field of life, health, and biomedical sciences. The book provides an overview of basics in human reproduction to advanced knowledge of the field, including some evidence from other mammalian species that complement our current knowledge on the anatomy and physiology of the male and female reproductive tract and gametes. This resource covers the most used assisted reproductive techniques and technical advances, human reproduction and infertility disorders, their diagnosis and available treatment options.

  • Provides a solid background for the main challenges on human reproduction and infertility and reviews the most recent research studies
  • Includes the most used assisted reproductive techniques applied in clinical practice
  • Covers the most controversial ethical and societal issues and future challenges
