Summary
"Jane Maienschein and Kate MacCord, both researchers at the MBL, begin with a discussion of the meaning of regeneration in biological systems and connect this definition with mythological origins of the concept, historical and philosophical understandings, scientific studies of regenerating organisms, and researchers hopes to inspire similar regeneration in ecological systems and in medicine to heal injuries and fight disease. The authors have worked to make the biological concepts accessible to readers in different related disciplines, creating an essential primer on this important subject"--
