Growth
Authored by human growth pioneer Prof. J.M. Tanner and science writer Gordon Rattray Taylor alongside the editors of Time-Life Books, this volume in the Life Science Library series examines the biological mechanisms of growth across living organisms. Through photographic essays and detailed visual diagrams, the book covers cellular division, embryonic development, physical maturation from infancy through adolescence, hormonal regulation (including the pituitary gland), and the genetic and environmental factors governing development and cellular aging.
