The neural crest in development and evolution

"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.
