$75.00 – $150.00
Stem cell therapy, otherwise known as the regenerative medicine, promotes the regrow, repair or replacement of the diseased, dysfunctional or damaged tissues using stem cells. The Dawn of New Medicine expresses stem cells therapy as the new hope in modern medicine. This book explores the holistic dimension of stem cells therapy, from the basics of stem cell therapy to the possibilities it may bring to modern medicine.
Chronic diseases have stolen joy from a lot of people when, as a patient ourselves or when someone close to us was diagnosed with an illness for which there was no solution to. While symptoms of these diseases are often managed by medication and medicinal services, stem cells therapy go beyond the conventional management to discover therapies that support to body to repair, regenerate and restore. This book wishes to enlighten readers that there might be hope in managing diseases such as Down Syndrome, Autism Spectrum, Cerebral Palsy and global developmental delay as mentioned in this book.

Reviewer from NetGalley –
This is amazing book covering not only stem cells, but how this treatment can change the course of medicine for the future. The author talks about how so many diseases and illnesses are presently incurable, but that stem cells are the face of the future and could cure these, leading to a better society. I loved how the author broke down the science behind stem cells; he took the reader through it step by step, explaining what they are, where they are found, why and how they are useful and more. He has a chapter dedicated to each illness or disease that stem cells could be useful for and goes into great detail about the benefits of stem cells. This is such a hot button and polarizing topic, but I think Mike Chan breaks it down so it is understandable to the general public and he helps us to realize why stem cells are so important and why we should be giving them a chance when it comes to medicine and curing illness and disease. I truly think this is a book that not only those in the medical community should read, but the general public as well.
