Editorial Reviews
Review
"'For readers untrained in the science of stem cell research, Professors Korobkin and Munzer's clear prose and straightforward explanations make the book an ideal introduction to this complex area.' Harvard Law Review 'Korobkin has not only succeeded in offering a wide array of knowledge for those interested and otherwise unacquainted with the political, legal, and ethical implications of stem cell research, but has also presented this information in a fun and exciting manner, with appeal to a variety of disciplines.' Christopher A. Riddle, Law and Politics Review"

Review
"Are we prepared to face the unique challenges of stem cell research as it moves from the laboratory to medical treatments? Thanks to the remarkable work of Russell Korobkin, we now have a clear and thorough road map to follow. Whether you are a policy-maker, attorney, biotech executive, patient, or concerned citizen, you will be well served to read Stem Cell Century."-Bernard Siegel, Executive Director, Genetics Policy Institute (Bernard Siegel )
"Stem Cell Century provides a very clear analysis of the policy issues around cloning and stem cells in biomedicine, on the basis of a sound scientific understanding of the underlying biology."-Ian Wilmut, Director, Edinburgh University Centre for Regenerative Medicine and creator of "Dolly" the lamb, the world's first cloned mammal (Ian Wilmut )
"Stem Cell Century is the first book to clearly explain the profound effects of law and policy on what may be the biggest scientific advance of our time. Korobkin vividly demonstrates how a formerly quiet corner of biology has exploded into new realms of intellectual property, commerce and international affairs. If you want to know what lies ahead for stem cell research, buy this book."-Christopher Thomas Scott, Director, Stanford University Program on Stem Cells and Society, and author of Stem Cell Now: A brief introduction to the coming medical revolution (Christopher Thomas Scott )
