Reviews

Ellison grips your attention from his opening contrast between a difficult birth in central Africa...and a successful delivery in the U.S.... He isn't sensationalist. Fascination comes from following the progress from conception to maturity in minute detail...On Fertile Ground is enjoyable and Ellison has an individual voice. - Roy Herbert, New Scientist On Fertile Ground provides the finest available integration of detailed information on human reproductive physiology with evolutionary explanations...An excellent read that significantly advances our understanding of human reproduction. - Hillard S. Kaplan, Science
