Conducts us through the 40 weeks of a human pregnancy, explaining the complex biology behind human gestation and shows how this field of study can help us understand our genesis as individuals and our evolution as a species, to provide insight into who we are and why we behave as we do.

Drawing on past speculation and present knowledge, reproductive biologist David Bainbridge conducts us through the 40 weeks of a human pregnancy, from conception to breastfeeding, explaining the complex biology behind human gestation in a clear manner. "Making Babies" shows how the study of human pregnancy can help us understand our genesis as individuals and our evolution as a species, and provides insight into who we are and why we behave as we do.

David Bainbridge is University Clinical Veterinary Anatomist at the University of Cambridge and a Fellow of St. Catharine's College.
