This book explores comparative anatomy of the placenta across placental mammals, an organ responsible for the connection between mother and fetus during intrauterine life. The author's research employed a comprehensive range of mammals, including rare species, to study the development, form, and structure of placental tissues. This book provides an examination of the modification in form and structure exhibited in various placental mammals, while also taking into account those of the human species. The book also provides a detailed account of not only the visible arrangements of the placenta in different mammal species but also of microscopic structures and the relationship between the fetus and maternal tissues. The author shares new facts regarding the structure and development of the placenta and offers novel insights into previously recorded observations. This book is a valuable resource for anatomists, physiologists, and anyone interested in mammalian reproductive biology, as it significantly contributes to our understanding of the evolution and function of the placenta.
