Reviews

This volume clearly demonstrates that genetic therapy is underway, and that the efforts described are soundly based in rationale and feasibilityOur increasing understanding of the mechanisms of conversion of the genetic code into function indicate that gene based therapy will become a mainstay of disease control in the 21st century. -O.
