This compilation of texts written by Blechschmidt provides interested readers with an introduction to the fundamental research of Erich Blechschmidt and conveys an understanding of kinetic embryology and anatomy. For this book, three writings by the embryologist Erich Blechschmidt have been revised: From Egg to Embryo, The Early Development of Humans. The Local Growth Modifications in the Metabolic Field of the Human Germ, Being and Becoming. Human Early Development. The foundations of a biodynamic description of the growth performance of the embryo are significant for therapists in clinics and practices, as well as for anyone who wishes to view and treat humans holistically rather than as mere products of physics and chemistry.
