From the reviews:
"Address the legal and policy status of biobanking and tissue research, primarily in Europe . . Since biobanking and tissue research engage such diverse disciplines as health and privacy law, biomedical and IT fields, the book's audience is likewise diverse. . provides a unique resource for Europeans and non-Europeans . . especially important for those who work on these issues internationally, and those who may not be familiar with the diversity of approaches and insights that can be learned from the European systems."
