AB The  brain  is  fascinating,  powerful,  and  mysterious.  Complex  molecular  symphonies  play  constantly  to  orchestrate  unconscious  functions  as  well  as  thoughts  and  emotions,  in  a  word,  consciousness.  I  can  see  how  Ernst  Haeckel  would  be  seduced  to  believe  that  the  long  evolutionary  road  of  the  brain  during  phylogeny  is  recapitulated  during  embryonic  and  fetal  life.  Development  is  rapid,  complicated,  and  is  incompletely  understood.  Therefore,  to  look  at  the  developing  fetal  brain  and  attempt  to  predict  neurologic  and  cognitive  function  is  an  extraordinary  challenge.
