Reviews

Windt, Barros and Sousa must be congratulated on their step-by-step description of the ICSI techniquea well-balanced account of the fertilization process. This excellent atlas is a must-have for clinicians and scientists involved in assisted reproduction programs, as well as those in need of a quick but thorough run-through in this exciting field of medicine. Given that half of this 187-page book consists of pictures, it provides for easy yet highly informative reading. Truly, if a picture is worth a thousand words then this book speaks volume. - Organon's Magazine on Women & Health
