A Child is Born
I haven't read this book. I purchased the book for my son and his wife, who will be having their first child in January 2009. It will also make me and my wife grandparents for the first time! They love the book! Thank you for the rapid delivery! Susan and Billy Thompson

Inspiring!
As an artist and photographer I was inspired by the beauty captured in the images of Nilsson's book "Life", but as a doctor with some knowledge of the subject, I was intrigued by how amazing the body really is.

Great for Reading to your older Children
This book was given to us when we were expecting our first son and we loved seeing the stages of development. It has become a favorite of our sons from the moment when they both first asked "what happened when we were in your tummy?".

World Class microphotography
This book is stunning in its capturing of the human body in ways that still seem impossible even after I am familiar with them. This book with its hundreds of large, detailed microphotographs gives you a whole new sense of what it is to be alive and what you are alive inside of. If your a doctor or a srudent or just an inhabitant of a human body, this book will make you feel more at home where ...
