A timely and provocative analysis of the broad range of policy
issues raised by stem cell science and how lawmakers should address
them The explosion of interest in stem cell research raises a raft
of controversial policy questions. When should human embryos be
used to create stem cells? Should cloning be outlawed? Should egg
and tissue donors be paid? Should we allow scientists to patent
stem cells? Is the government entitled to a portion of the revenue
from stem cell technology created with public funds? How should the
regulators and courts balance the competing goals of access to
revolutionary treatments and protection of the public from unknown
risks? Russell Korobkin, with contributions from Stephen R. Munzer,
provides the first thorough discussion and analysis of these and
other unsettled questions of law, policy, and ethics that surround
stem cell science. His clear and concise description of complex
problems coupled with logical and well-balanced conclusions makes
this volume essential reading for all Americans, general readers
and experts alike, interested in the promise of stem cell research
and the future of regenerative medicine.
