Wolpert's Principles of Development, the latest edition of the prize-winning textbook, opens up the fascinating field of developmental biology to undergraduates studying biology, medicine, and veterinary science. By focusing on the underlying processes shared by diverse organisms, the textbook lays the foundation for a deep understanding. Key features - An emphasis throughout on the underlying principles - which underpin the commonalities between different organisms and their development - enables students to get a clear sense of the 'big picture' of the subject. - Custom-drawn artwork and integrated animations and videos help to make the visualisation of processes and mechanisms in this challenging subject as straightforward as possible. - Medical Boxes explore key developmental diseases and explain how developmental biology furthers our understanding human health and disease. Further experimental detail, including Experimental Boxes, from both classic and current research, demonstrates 'how we know what we know'. - Also available as an e-book enhanced with learning objectives, self-assessment interactive quizzes and multi-media content to offer a fully immersive experience and extra learning support. New to this edition - Chapter 7, a new chapter on Embryonic stem cells, embryo models, and regenerative medicine, to ensure the book's coverage stays up to date with this very active area of developmental biology research. - Chapters 3 and 4 on vertebrate development have been restructured and updated, especially in relation to mouse development, to ensure major concepts and principles are explained with recent supporting experimental evidence. - Chapter 10 on the nervous system has been completely revised and updated, with more emphasis on neural tube patterning. - Chapter 14, which covers nematodes and sea urchins, now appears online as part of the Digital. - There are more examples of the use of CRISPR to address problems like sickle cell disease (Ch6), and evolution of limbs from fins (Ch13). - Examples of single-cell RNA sequencing can be found throughout the book (Ch3, Ch6, Ch7, Ch10, Ch11, Ch12). - Smaller revisions, updates, and new figures have been included throughout. Digital formats and resources The seventh edition is available for students and institutions to purchase in a variety of formats: the e-book and Science Trove offer a mobile experience and convenient access along with interactive self-test questions, videos, flashcards, supplementary materials, functionality tools, navigation features and links that offer extra learning support.

Very readable treatment of a difficult topic
I thought the book was very easy to read and written as if Mike was in a room with you chatting about this important topic. I think the book is a great resource for anyone dealing with either personal challenges or interpersonal issues with friends, coworkers or family members. A very informative book that deals with a difficult topic in an easy to read writing style.

Good read
"I know you were once an child with dreams but I once your child with my own dreams." Is a quote that relates to this book.While it needs to be edited more and some mistakes fixed, this has allowed me and many others to understand our parents better and work towards fixing what they have done or even what they failed to do.

Guidelines for Self-awareness and change
This book’s focus, to me, was about self-awareness: 1 to what degree were my parents emotionally immature and what impact, if any, did this impact me?; 2. To what degree have I grown and developed in emotional intelligence/nurturing resilience?; and what impact did my behaviors have on my children’s development? An interesting exercise

A Practical Guide to Breaking the Cycle of Emotional Immaturity
“The Legacy of Emotionally Immature Parents: Gain Insights and Solutions Across the Generations to Navigate Child-Rearing Challenges, Build Healthy Relationships, and Grow Emotionally” by Mike Palm is the practical guide for parents who couldn’t fully meet emotional needs, and couldn’t give what they didn’t have and the adults still carrying the impact. The book is quite well structured. For example, Chapters 1–2 define emotional immaturity, trace its roots and explore how it shows up in family dynamics. Chapter 3 focuses on breaking the cycle - identifying patterns, using boundaries, mindfulness, and behavioral change tools. Chapter 5 is on self-care - prioritizing it without guilt, designing routines, balancing family obligations, and practicing emotional detachment. Chapter 7 tackles forgiveness and building a legacy of emotional maturity. Overall, this is a practical guide for anyone who grew up feeling emotionally unseen and wants to parent differently. Highly recommended for parents who recognize emotional immaturity in their upbringing and want to stop the cycle, or anyone wanting to build healthier relationships with family members who may still carry those patterns.
