From the reviews: "This book is composed of articles that reflect an interdisciplinary and transnational approach to the issues surrounding research biobanking. ... The editors intend the book for professionals and regulators involved in research as well as academics and the general public. ... The two-part structure ... provides valuable information to readers at all levels of prior exposure to the issue of biobanking." (Kelly K. Dineen, Doody's Review Service, December, 2009) "Biobanks, defined as collections of biological materials or samples, exist on every continent of the globe. ... book's stated goal is to 'explore some of the legal, ethical, and social issues and challenges raised by research biobanking,' and it claims to be aimed at a wide audience, ranging from biobank researchers, health law experts, and philosophers to health and research regulators, politicians, and the general public. ... this book is recommended as a textbook or as reference material for a course in comparative biobanking policy." (Rogelio A. Lasso, Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 304 (8), 2010)
