Nash’s article, although replete with technical details, manages to captivate the interest of the reader while at the same time instill a scientific understanding of fertilization, cellular development, embryonic maturation, and birth as well as the genetic and prenatal factors which affect those processes.

The author reveals the tendency of the researchers to make unsupported assertions and to clump data from independent populations in such a way that it becomes an over generalization rather than an objective reporting of interpopulation characteristics.
