This Guide lists companies worldwide that are involved in the
business of stem cell research. Besides companies actively
developing stem cell-based therapeutics, the Guide lists for-profit
umbilical cord blood stem cell banks as well as companies that
provide supplies and services to stem cell researchers. More than
200 companies are included -- 206 to be exact We do not claim that
this is the definitive list of stem cell research firms. Companies
(and executives) come and go all the time, while others refocus
their corporate strategies toward nearer term product goals for
financial reasons, etc. It's also important to point out that
larger pharmaceutical and biotech firms are performing stem
cell-related research intramurally in isolated business units or in
partnerships with younger, smaller firms. Examples of this
phenomenon include StemCells, Inc.'s acquisition of Stem Cell
Sciences, Inc., and PerkinElmer's acquisition of ViaCell, Inc.
Partnerships also abound. Pfizer agreed to commercialize a stem
cell product (Multistem) with Athersys, Inc., of Cleveland, Ohio.
Other examples of these relationships include Novo Nordisk's
(Denmark) collaboration with Sweden's Cellartis on stem cell
treatments for diabetes; Johnson & Johnson's investments in
Novocell and Tengion (East Norriton, Pa.); GlaxoSmithKline's
investment in Harvard University's stem cell institute; and
Novartis's and Roche's investments in Cellerix (Spain). This volume
contains information about the big pharmaceutical entities only
sporadically and referentially. Nevertheless, the Guide's
comprehensive listings contain accurate contact information,
up-to-date lists of senior management, overviews of corporate
missions and research activities, and Web links to
financial/funding/investor pages and corporate news pages, where
available. Companies are listed alphabetically within major market,
product or research category.

Certainly everyone knows that Italy is one of the world's leading
wine producers, yet few understand the vast array of its wines.
Beyond Barolo and Brunello: Italy's Most Distinctive Wines is a
look at the best examples of virtually every wine type from Italy.
Written by an American journalist who has been traveling to wine
regions throughout the length and width of Italy for more than a
dozen years, this is meant to give wine lovers an insider's glimpse
at the finest examples of not only famous wines such as Amarone,
Barolo and Brunello, but more importantly, the everyday wines such
as Soave, Dolcetto, Nero d'Avola and Verdicchio that are the
backbone of the Italian wine industry. There are entries of more
than 550 wines from more than 475 producers; each entry describes
in detail several specifics about the wine, not only the aromas and
flavors, but also the style of the wine as sought by the producer.
More than just a technical approach to the Italian wine scene, this
is an engaging look into the individuals who continue the work of
their ancestors - that of creating a viticultural product that
reflects a specific sense of place.
