This book is about transgenic animals - animals into which new
genes have been artificially introduced. It has chapters by leading
authorities on the present state of play regarding the application
of the transgenic technology to different animal groups. A great
range of animal types, ranging from protozoan cells, through
nematode worms and fruit flies to many higher vertebrates, have
been used in this experimental way and this book provides an
in-depth, up-to-date, comprehensive and authoritative account of
the work with all such animal types. The likely impact of
transgenic animals on the future development of agriculture and
medicine is very great; at the same time they provide an unrivalled
experimental system for the study of gene regulation, genetic
aspects of disease, and gene therapy. One of the objectives of the
book is therefore to set transgenic animals in the context of their
present and future contributions to medicine and agriculture.
