October eBook of the Month:

The Facts, the Fiction, and the Fear Driving the Greatest Scientific, Political, and Religious Debate of Our Time


There has been much recent debate about the merits, dangers, and nature of stem cell research. Some see in it the answer to every debilitating disease known to man, while others see it as a step away from human cloning.

In the search for the truth about stem cell science, the author of the October eBook of the Month has interviewed the scientists whose cutting-edge research is at the very heart of this hot-button issue. This eBook explains what they have accomplished so far, what they’re currently doing, and what they see on the horizon.

The Stem Cell Divide does not take sides, and the author debunks the distortions and exaggerations that come from every camp. This eBook does not tell readers what to think, but gives them the facts necessary to form their own opinions about one of the most divisive, complex, and potentially life-changing developments in history.
