In this thoroughly updated second edition, Matthias Herdegen
provides a comprehensive and contemporary assessment of the
regulation of biotechnology processes and products from an
international and comparative perspective, complete with analysis
of intricate legal and ethical debates. Considering recent advances
in biotechnology, this new edition explores how regulatory
approaches to controversial issues such as stem cell research,
cloning and gene therapy differ across jurisdictions due to
conflicting values and risk perceptions. Reflecting on current
developments, the book explores the interaction between
biotechnology and different fields of law, including: human rights,
intellectual property, trade law and environmental law. In doing
so, Herdegen investigates complex concerns such as balancing
commercial interests with socio-cultural considerations and
ensuring respect for human dignity in the pursuit of biomedical
research. Furthermore this new edition includes examination of
recent developments in areas such as genome editing, biomedicine,
COVID-19 vaccines, and patents on essentially biological products,
with an entirely revised section on biobanks. Providing a concise
and accessible guide to a complex field of international law, this
book will be of great value to those researching the law and
regulation of biotechnology, biomedicine and biodiversity both
within the EU and at an international level. Practicing lawyers
will also benefit from a diverse array of sources from a range of
legal systems.
