"The Proteus effect" Description:
The Open Library:
"The story of stem cell technologies is at once compelling, controversial, and remarkable. Part detective story, part medical history, The Proteus Effect describes early scientific discoveries that date back as far as 1740 before proceeding into the present to recount the incredible events leading to the discovery of stem cells in animal tumors, in the blood of mice, in the brains of canaries, in human embryos, and then in the skin, liver, and other organs of grown humans. It looks at the explosive potential of these special cells for the future of medicine." "Ann B. Parson chronicles a scientific discovery in progress, exploring the ethical debates, describing the current research, and hinting at a spectacular new era in medicine."--BOOK JACKET.
