Know about the book -

Xenotransplantation is written by Jeffrey L. Platt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1592591663 (ISBN 10) and 9781592591664 (ISBN 13).

Internationally recognized scientists, clinicians, and technologists review and explain the fundamental molecular and cellular biology that has been applied to the emerging field of transplant immunology and xenotransplantation, and what impact these advances might optimally have on medicine and science. The authoritative experts writing here-many of whom made the basic discoveries underlying the recent advances-examine the biological and immunological hurdles to xenotransplantation, illuminating how the immune system interacts with the xenograft and laying a practical foundation for the use of genetic engineering and animal transplants in the treatment of human disease.
