Preface to the Fourth Edition
This book owes its inception to Dr. R. H. Hunter of Queen's University, Belfast, and the first three editions came from his pen. He has now retired from active teaching and when a fourth edition was called for, I, as one of his former students, was asked to take over the work. I have not altered the plan of the book and it is still intended primarily for the medical student preparing for the Second Professional Examinations of Universities and Colleges. Nevertheless, it is hoped that it may perhaps have a wider appeal, and that those reading for other examinations requiring a knowledge of human development may benefit from a study of its pages.
The many advances in our knowledge of human embryology since 1938, when the last edition of this book was published, necessitated a drastic revision, and the opportunity was taken almost completely to re-write it. Several new illustrations have been inserted and others re-drawn.
The index is the work of Mrs. W. B. Howell, to whom I express my sincere thanks, not only for this, bn 1- also for her care in reading the proofs.
J. S. BAXTER.

November, 1947.
