This body of work represents the first volume of a book series
covering the field of tissue engineering. Tissue engineering, which
refers to a category of therapeutic or diagnostic products and
processes which are based upon a combination of living cells and
biomaterials, was defined as a field only a few years ago (1988).
Tissue engineering is an inherently interdisciplinary field,
combining bioengineering, life sciences and clinical sciences. The
definition of this area of work as the field of tissue engineering
brought together scientists from multiple backgrounds who already
were working toward the achievement of similar goals. Why a book
series exclusively devoted to tissue engineering? The field of
tissue engineering is heterogeneous. The cells involved in tissue
engineering can be autologous, allogeneic or xenogeneic. The
biomaterials utilized can be either naturally occurring, synthetic
or a combination of both. The appli cation of the technology can be
either for acute or permanent purposes. An attempt to cover the
field of tissue engineering in a single volume, with the degree of
detail necessary for individuals with different scientific back
grounds and disciplines, would be a difficult task to accomplish,
particularly when this field is just emerging and changing rapidly.
Therefore, addressing different technologies within the field of
tissue engineering, in a comprehen sive manner, is the main mission
of this series of volumes. A stellar group of scientists has been
brought together to form the editorial board of the series."
