520    "Human gene transfer is widely regarded as one of the most
       promising technologies for the treatment of a variety of 
       disorders, but it presents practitioners with a variety of
       difficult ethical questions. Gene Transfer and the Ethics 
       of First-in-Human Research examines the ethical and policy
       dimensions of testing interventions in human beings for 
       the first time. The book discusses the difficult ethical 
       challenges that arise from attempting to translate 
       laboratory discoveries into clinical applications. These 
       range from which available techniques to use, when to 
       initiate human testing, questions of consent, expectation 
       in public arenas, how to define acceptable risk, and the 
       inclusion of vulnerable or disadvantaged subjects in early
       phase trials. This book is relevant to ethicists, legal 
       practitioners, policy makers, geneticists and clinicians 
       involved in clinical trials of new medical interventions"-
