Publisher's Description
"A Child Is Born is Lennart Nilsson's masterpiece. In this completely new edition, the journey from fertilization to birth is one of breathtaking discovery. The sperm racing to the ovum; the instant they fuse; the very first cell division; implantation; the earliest brain cells; the growth of eyes, ears, face, fingers, and toes; and finally the moment of delivery itself--are revealed with brilliant artistry, in full color. These historic new photos, together with expert advice and information for parents, make Lennart Nilsson's book the finest introduction to the universal miracle of birth."--the publisher.
