Content

Principles of Cloning is the first comprehensive book on animal cloning since the creation of Dolly. The contributing authors are the principal investigators on each of the animal species cloned to date and are expertly qualified to present the state-of-the-art information in their respective areas. Editors Cibelli, Lanza and West garnered worldwide spotlight late in 2001 when their company, Advanced Cell Technology, announced the successful engineering of the world's first cloned human embryo. The trio was featured in the US News & World Report December 2001 cover story, "The First Human Clone." The book presents the basic biological mechanisms of how cloning works and progresses to discuss current and potential applications in basic biology, agriculture, biotechnology, and medicine.

The topic of cloning, a lightning rod issue since the 1997 announcement of the cloned sheep Dolly, is one of the most exciting and promising areas of medical research if not the most controversial. While the moral debate over human cloning and the use of stem cells rages on, researchers are doggedly going about the business of developing cloning treatments for therapeutic uses in disease.Potential applications for cloning research include agricultural uses, medical treatments for diseases such as Parkinson's disease, and genetically modified foods. The research in this area has vast potential.

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages.
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages.
