Description
Tissue engineering is a rapidly growing area of biomedical research with obvious commercial applications. This is a comprehensive, definitive text-reference which will become the benchmark in this area. Principles in Tissue Engineering strikes a balance among the diversity of subjects that are related to tissue engineering, including biology, chemistry, material science, engineering, immunology, and transplantation, while emphasizing those research areas that are likely to be of the most value to medicine in the future.
This book represents the combined intellect of almost 100 scholars and clinicians who's pioneering work has been instrumental to ushering in this fascinating and important field.
