Is it the genes? The childhood environment? Or could it be that many of our individual characteristics--our health, our intelligence, our temperaments--are influenced by conditions encountered before birth? That's the claim of a provocative field known as fetal origins. Scientists are developing a radically new understanding of our very earliest experiences and how they exert lasting effects on us well into adulthood. Their research offers a bold new view of pregnancy as a crucial staging ground for our health, ability, and well-being throughout life. Journalist Annie Murphy Paul ventures into the laboratories, interviews experts from around the world, and delves into the rich history of ideas about how we're shaped before birth. The fetus is not an inert being, but an active and dynamic creature--and the pregnant woman is a source of influence on her future child far more powerful and positive than we ever knew.--From publisher description. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Pregnancy $x Psychological aspects $v Popular works. 650 0 $a Fetus $x Development $v Popular works. 650 0 $a Prenatal diagnosis $v Popular works. 941 $a 17 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240710014843.0 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718085921.0 952 $l ULAX314 $d 20190926092712.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006054243.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20180703065134.0 952 $l NYPE343 $d 20170523014816.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418080533.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20160202045059.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20150911025139.0 952 $l XSPE157 $d 20150425022413.0 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20150409064646.0 952 $l AGPE046 $d 20150221021433.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20110514010640.0 952 $l PRAX771 $d 20110512011749.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20110111010546.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20101102010538.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20101027010543.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8064257ED1D811DFA567A0F26AFF544E 994 $a C0 $b LG@Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
