The development of powerful new techniques and refmements of tech- niques in molecular genetics in recent years, and the surge in interest in biotechnology based on genetic methods, have heralded a new golden age in molecular genetics, and stimulated in diverse disciplines much interest in the technologies themselves and their potential uses in basic and applied biomedical sciences.
Life Science studies in space were initially driven by the need to explore how man could survive spaceflight conditions; the effects of being launched un- der high accelerations, exposed to weightlessness and radiation for different periods of time, and returned to Earth in safety.
Having received the invitation from Springer-Verlag to produce a volume on drug-induced birth defects for the Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology, we asked ourselves what new approach could we offer that would capture the state of the science and bring a new synthesis of the information on this topic to the world's literature.
