Cloning has the potential to be an extremely valuable tool across many fields. In agriculture, the reproductive cloning of farm animals could prove to be advantageous. In clinical medicine, the employment of therapeutic cloning for cell, tissue, and organ replacement appears to be imminent. In Epigenetic Risks of Cloning, 32 leading researchers detail the cloning methods being employed with various animal models, providing both a review of current findings and a discussion of potential concerns. Less than four percent of reconstructed embryos typically develop to adulthood, the cumulative result of inefficiencies occurring at every stage of development. This book considers the very real consequences of those inefficiencies: high rates of fetal, perinatal, and neonatal loss, as well as the production of abnormal offspring. At present, there is a legitimate concern that the propensity for epigenetic errors could be paralleled in human embryos.

Although a wealth of information can be found scattered throughout periodicals and research papers, tracking down the most effective treatment for a heterogeneous syndrome such as cachexia can be problematic. Edited by experts in the field, with contributions from a multidisciplinary panel, Pharmacotherapy of Cachexia is the first book devoted solely to the treatment of cachexia with a focus on pharmacotherapeutic aspects.The book discusses the various aspects of the syndrome and compares and contrasts its diverse treatment options. It explores the topic from a theoretical and practical perspective and provides an overview of currently available and future treatment. The first half of the book includes coverage of pathophysiology, associated diseases, and general therapeutic aspects. The subsequent sections devoted to pharmacotherapy cover drugs in clinical use, drugs in research and development, and the final section focuses on potential future advancements.Numerous internationally recognized specialists have contributed chapters on the various aspects of cachexia to this book. Their critical evaluation of pathophysiological mechanisms, clinical features, and therapeutic options make it a valuable source of information on all aspects of this serious and life-threatening condition. Expert editorial guidance ensures minimal repetition of information and uniform presentation. Addressing the multiple disease processes associated with cachexia in an organized and useful way, the book is a comprehensive reference for the management of this recalcitrant and hard-to-treat syndrome.

This book is based on a five-year joint project involving a comparative study of youth transitions and social policy/security in Japan and Europe. It uses a comparative model embedded in insights from previous research on youth transition, and builds on comparative country case studies from Japan, the United Kingdom, Germany, Norway, and Switzerland. Starting from the increasingly problematic youth transitions in Japan, this book focuses on young people’s transitions to adulthood in Japan and four European countries. This book examines how country-specific institutions and cultural norms create and resolve transition risks in the respective countries, taking into consideration aspects of social policy/security.Chapter 5 is available open access under a CreativeCommons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
