From the reviews: "This volume is an initial attempt to decipher the key factors involved in stem cell pluripotency, maintenance, and directed differentiation toward specific cell lineages and stem cell types. The presentation of the contents is such that upper-grade undergraduates, graduate students, postgraduates, and basic research as well as clinical research scientists are provided with accessible information about recent advances in the stem cell field. The volume consists of 43 comprehensively written chapters divided into five parts ... ." (Anticancer Research, Vol. 29 (11), November, 2009)
