Book excerpt: How did scientific and medical research on something smaller than the period at the end of a sentence come to such prominence in American political life? Confounding the traditional polarized politics of the country previously dominated by anti-abortion and pro-choice politics, the politics of stem cell research may be redrawing the borders of public life. This book explores the new political partnerships that have been formed across party lines, the remarkable collaborations between scientists and patients as advocates for research, and the promise of stem cell research that hangs in the balance.
