This book contains up to date research contributed by specialists in biology of development. reproductive physiologists and geneticists. It covers a relatively broad spectrum of data and observations which shed some light on preimplantational embryonic life and the supports and obstacles provided by the maternal organism with respect to the final accomplishment of normal implantation and establishment of pregnancy. It contains valuable information on the synthesis and biological role of uteroglobulin as well as the relation of steroid receptors and mechanism of action of this hormone in the genital tract. The book will be very useful for advanced students. basic researchers and for teaching purposes. It will also be of use to gynecologists. endocrinologists. physiologists and biochemists.
