Stem Cells: An Insider's Guide is an exciting new book that takes
readers inside the world of stem cells guided by international stem
cell expert, Dr. Paul Knoepfler. Stem cells are catalyzing a
revolution in medicine. The book also tackles the exciting and
hotly debated area of stem cell treatments that are capturing the
public's imagination. In the future they may also transform how we
age and reproduce. However, there are serious risks and ethical
challenges, too. The author's goal with this insider's guide is to
give readers the information needed to distinguish between the
ubiquitous hype and legitimate hope found throughout the stem cell
world. The book answers the most common questions that people have
about stem cells. Can stem cells help my family with a serious
medical problem such as Alzheimer's, Multiple Sclerosis, or Autism?
Are such treatments safe? Can stem cells make me look younger or
even literally stay physically young? These questions and many more
are answered here. A number of ethical issues related to stem cells
that spark debates are discussed, including risky treatments,
cloning and embryonic stem cells. The author breaks new ground in a
number of ways such as by suggesting reforms to the FDA, providing
a new theory of aging based on stem cells, and including a
revolutionary Stem Cell Patient Bill of Rights. More generally, the
book is your guide to where the stem cell field will be in the near
future as well as a thoughtful perspective on how stem cell
therapies will ultimately change your life and our world.
