Stem Cells: A Very Short Introduction by Jonathan Slack

Loved this book. It provides just the right amount of detail to introduce the reader to current Stem Cell research and its application. It clearly details the different types of Stem Cells and provides a realistic look at their uses in present-day technology and possible future therapies. Highly recommend. This was my first read in the "Very Short Introduction" series and it won't be my last!
