Description
Summary:For many years the Association for the Aid of Crippled Children has supported teratologic research in many ways. Among the activities of the Association scientific conferences and publication of their proceedings play an important role. In the present volume one will find brief summaries of papers presented at a conference in 1954 and abstracts of the discussions contributed by the participants. Part I dealing with physical, chemical and sociological aspects of the fetal environment contains an interesting report by J. Walker of Aberdeen, Scotland, on the effects of obstetrical, physical and environmental factors on the incidence of stillbirths, neonatal deaths and prematurity.
