This book was released on 1999 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have been many advances in understanding mammalian sex determination and differentiation during the last decade. Using these advances to elucidate clinical conditions of abnormal sexual development, the authors of this book bring together expertise in molecular endocrinology, molecular genetics, and dysmorphology. This is not a conventional textbook. It is seldom dogmatic, frequently presents alternatives, highlights speculation, raises questions, and attempts to provide answers. This book will be welcomed by medical geneticists, genetic counselors, endocrinologists, gynecologists, urologists, and students who need fully-referenced information about the genetic aspects of human sexual maldevelopment in order to better manage their patients and their patients' families.
