520    Ever since the birth of molecular biology " the 
       tantalizing possibility of treating disease at its genetic
       roots has become increasingly feasible. Gene therapy â" 
       though still in its infancy â" remains one of the hottest 
       areas of research in medicine. Its approach utilizes a 
       gene transfer vehicle (""vector"") to deliver therapeutic 
       DNA or RNA to cells of the body in order to rectify the 
       defect that is causing the disease. Successful therapies 
       have been reported in humans in recent years such as cures
       in boys with severe immune deficiencies. Moreover" gene 
       therapy strategies are being adapted in numerous 
       biomedical laboratories to obtain novel treatments for a 
       variety of diseases and to study basic biological aspects 
       of disease. Correction of disease in animal studies is 
       steadily gaining ground highlighting the immense potential
       of gene therapy in the medical profession. This book will 
       cover topics that are at the forefront of biomedical 
       research such as RNA interference viral and non-viral gene
       transfer systems treatment of hematological diseases and 
       disorders of the central nervous system. Leading experts 
       on the respective vector or disease will contribute the 
       individual chapters and explain cutting-edge technologies.
       It also gives a broad overview of the most important gene 
       transfer vectors and most extensively studied target 
       diseases. This comprehensive guide is therefore a must-
       read for anyone in the biotechnology biomedical or medical
       industries seeking to further their knowledge in the area 
       of human gene therapy.
