FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Great cases are those judicial decisions around which the common law develops. This book explores eight exemplary cases from the United Kingdom, the United States and Australia that show the law as a living, breathing and down-the-street experience. It explores the social circumstances in which the cases arose and the ordinary people whose stories influenced and shaped the law as well as the characters and institutions (lawyers, judges and courts) that did much of the heavy lifting. By examining the consequences and fallout of these decisions, the book depicts the common law as an experimental, dynamic, messy, productive, tantalizing and bottom-up process, thereby revealing the diverse and uncoordinated attempts by the courts to adapt the law to changing conditions and shifting demands. Great cases are one way to glimpse the workings of the common law as an untidy but stimulating exercise in human judgment and social accomplishment. Back Cover A revealing look at the latest in craniofacial stem cell research and therapy With their unique ability to repair and replenish adult tissues, stem cells are increasingly used in cutting-edge medical therapies. This timely work focuses on the role of stem cells in craniofacial development, exploring the rapidly evolving area of dental and craniofacial tissue regeneration. With expert contributions from the forefront of craniofacial research and dentistry, Stem Cells in Craniofacial Development and Regeneration first introduces the development and regeneration of craniofacial tissues and organs, from neural crest cells to early tooth development. It then goes on to examine the different types of stem cells and their niches in craniofacial tissues, including what we can learn from rodent models. Concluding chapters survey the latest trends in stem cell-mediated craniofacial tissue bioengineering and stem cell therapies for treating damaged or lost tissue. Stem Cells in Craniofacial Development and Regeneration: Explains the mechanisms and biology of craniofacial morphogenesis and development Describes bone, tooth, muscle, and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) development and regeneration Covers dental, muscle, salivary gland, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and stem cells from bone marrow and adipose tissue Highlights advances in bioengineering for the repair of bone, muscle tissue, teeth, roots, and periodontal tissue Offers information on biological data integration and searching Stem Cells in Craniofacial Development and Regeneration is a must-have reference for craniofacial researchers, developmental biologists, tissue engineers, and dentists.

Review Quote "The law lives through people and their stories and Allan Hutchinson has captured some of the most remarkable legal stories of the last two centuries in this book. . . The details are memorable, often funny, and sometimes tragic. English speaking peoples are still united by a common legal tradition, and these stories . . . unite us by reminding the reader what it means for humans to argue and resolve their disputes through judgment." - Noah Feldman Bemis Professor of Law, Harvard Law School and author of Scorpions: The Battles and Triumphs of FDRs Great Supreme Court Justices Promotional "Headline" This book explores the consequences of eight exemplary cases around which the common law developed to reveal the diverse and uncoordinated attempts by the courts to adapt the law to changing conditions.
