About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“Hug and Hermerén … have brought together a remarkable group of scholars from various parts of the world to explore the ethical, legal, and social issues that permeate all aspects of ES cell research. … the issues and problems raised by the authors of this thoughtful and thought-provoking collection of papers are timeless and should be read, contemplated, and discussed by all who are directly or indirectly involved in stem cell research.” (John B. Jenkins, The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol. 88 (2), June, 2013)
“This scholarly resource outlines the ethical, legal, and social aspects of translational stem cell research as it is practiced today. … This book is written for students, scholars, scientists, and healthcare professionals … . It should appeal to a wide professional audience. … The information is broad and thorough, and serves as an excellent resource for any scholar, scientist, or healthcare provider seeking to understand and further current dialogue on the topic.” (Elena M. Yates, Doody’s Review Service, June, 2011)Editors and Affiliations
