The Stem Cell Dilemma
Book description

Why read it?
1 author picked The Stem Cell Dilemma as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is a popular book, focusing on human interest but still scientifically reputable. Its main theme is the ethics, law, and politics of stem cells, mostly from a US perspective. It describes the debate in the USA about embryonic stem cells and how it polarized the nation. It covers many examples of political maneuvering to establish rules and regulations. It also has an international dimension and describes the legal position in countries around the world. I like it because I was in the USA during many of these debates and feel the book nicely captures the atmosphere of the controversy.
From Jonathan's list on stem cells from a scientist who studies them.
