Product Description
Every 3.5 minutes, a baby in the United States is born with a birth defect. This interesting and informative book uses plentiful primary and secondary sources to give insights into different birth defects, their diagnosis and treatment, and the challenges of living with them. It provides prospective parents with preventive steps, which may help ensure the health of their babies. Readers are given a window into the future through a discussion of stem cell and gene therapy research. (20051001)
