Summary: | This book provides readers with a state of the art overview of the scientific facts. It addresses the scientific fiction and presents foundations for readers to understand what the field of stem cells is about, where it is going, and why so many of the promised therapies are still far from clinical application. Peppered with interviews from some of the top scientists in the field, the authors describe examples of clinical successes and highlight exciting new research to provide a realistic and accurate look at stem cells and the surrounding research. --Book Jacket. |
