It provides a wealth of information on normal and abnormal morphogenesis * minor anomalies and their relevance * clinical approaches to specific diagnoses * and normal standards of measurement for the entire spectrum of disorders.

Each chapter includes a description of the specific abnormalityincluding occasional associated abnormalitiesnatural history, etiology, and references.

On opposing pages are several descriptive photographs and line drawings of either an individual with the abnormality or specific features of the abnormality..
