Lennart Nilsson's A Child Is Born, And That NOVA Episode You Remember
It's been kept in print for over 40 years, and Nilsson adds new pictures as new technologies make them possible, but the core is still the remarkable photos of feti--and the equally remarkably dated haircuts on those parents.
Nilsson's technique of depicting the fetus as a free-floating being independent from the mother's body has made them an influential factor in the debate over abortion, too.]

 Amazon.fr : A Child Is Born: Livres en anglais: Lennart Nilsson,Linda Schenck   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
In this latest edition of a classic originally published almost 40 years ago, photographer Nilsson and obstetrician Hamberger explore the miracle of birth, from attraction between a man and a woman to fertilization, pregnancy, labor and delivery; they also discuss infertility and developments in IVF and other treatments.
Nilsson zooms in on sperm racing towards the egg, the brand-new zygote, the embryo clinging to the lining of the uterus, a tadpole-like fetus and the remarkably developed ear of a 18-week old fetus, among other moments in the process of human reproduction.
With Hamberger's updated text on guidance for new parents, progress in fertility treatments, genetics and pregnancy health, the volume should continue to be a vivid reference for the whole family.
