Together, the chapters introduce and offer insights on new techniques for engineering of stem cells and the delivery of transgenes into stem cells via various viral and non-viral systems. The book offers a guide to the types of manipulations currently available to create genetically engineered stem cells that suit any investigator''s purpose, whether it''s basic science investigation, creation of disease models and screens, or cells for therapeutic applications.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“This is an excellent resource on the new techniques for the engineering of stem cells and the delivery of transgenes into stem cells via various viral and nonviral systems. It provides comprehensive information on the concepts of cell engineering principles and their application in primary and stem cells.  Researchers, established stem cell scientists, and graduate students interested in this field will find this book very handy.”  (\u003ci\u003eDoody’s\u003c\/i\u003e, 17 August 2012)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword \u003ci\u003eMichele Calos\u003c\/i\u003e vii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface ix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eContributors xi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I: Cloning and Gene Delivery 1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
