0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Great Britain, Heinemann Library, 2002.
Description 48pYellow Spine
Series Cells and Life
Summary/Abstract Explains why genetic engineers aim to alter genes, transfer genes from one organism to another and how they do this. It looks at how genetic engineering has led to the development of designer plants and the creation of transgenic animals to aid the study of human diseases. Also looks at gene therapy and the controversial areas of stem cell research and cloning.
