Summary
  1. "The guidelines set forth in Guidelines for Human Embryonic Stem Cell Research are intended to enhance the integrity of privately funded hES research in the public's perception and in actuality by encouraging responsible practices in the conduct of that research. Providing the background rationale for the choices involved in formulating the guidelines, answers to the following will be addressed: what are the ethical concerns surrounding hES research?; and what can scientists do to address these ethical concerns and ensure that their research is conducted using responisble practices?"--BOOK JACKET.
