4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent factual account behind an emotive story, 29 Nov 2000
By A Customer
This book provides a layman's guide to the science that is credited with the 'creation' of Dolly the sheep. It explains that the project which resulted in this world famous animal is only the tip of an iceberg of research which is likely to be hugely benefit to human medicine. The authors use plain language and sound reasoning to present the story of their scientific work. This allows the reader to take a balanced view of a subject that is often portrayed only in an emotive way. This is one of the Book's main strengths - the authors' understand the reason for the massive (and sometimes intrusive) interest in their work but do not dismiss the public concerns that have arisen. Instead they offer the history of their research and the prediction of its practical benefits to justify their approach.

Apart from anything else this is a fascinating read for anyone who is at all interested in the story behind the headlines.
