The science says yes. In [this book], Beth Shapiro, evolutionary biologist and pioneer in'ancient DNA' research, walks readers through the astonishing and controversial process of de-extinction. From deciding which species should be restored, to sequencing their genomes, to anticipating how revived populations might be overseen in the wild, Shapiro vividlyexplores the extraordinary cutting-edge science that is being used--today--to resurrect the past"--Amazon.com. 650 $a NATURE / Endangered Species. 650 $a NATURE / Dinosaurs & Prehistoric Creatures. 650 $a SCIENCE / Life Sciences / Genetics & Genomics. 650 $a SCIENCE / Biotechnology. 650 0 $a Extinct animals $x Genetics. 650 0 $a Extinct animals $x Cloning. 650 0 $a DNA, Fossil. 650 0 $a Extinction (Biology) 650 0 $a Genomics $x Moral and ethical aspects. 650 0 $a Animal genetic engineering $x Moral and ethical aspects. 650 0 $a Animal diversity conservation $x Moral and ethical aspects. 650 0 $a Restoration ecology $x Moral and ethical aspects. 941 $a 21 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417013220.0 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305021911.0 952 $l GLAX641 $d 20231201010708.0 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718092123.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20221203071155.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722050345.0 952 $l CEAX572 $d 20200508021644.0 952 $l AAPF906 $d 20190717030056.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006083921.0 952 $l VXPE964 $d 20171214015927.0 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20160622013349.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20160412010410.0 952 $l D8PD522 $d 20160407024123.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20151209013556.0 952 $l OPAX566 $d 20151022114409.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20150926033024.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20150619014254.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20150602011056.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20150529013955.0 952 $l YKPE532 $d 20150515020414.0 952 $l XBPE737 $d 20150502030319.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BBE062DEF09111E4AF152ED3DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
