Sperm Cell Research in the 21st Century: Historical Discoveries to New Horizons
Sperm Cell Research in the 21st Century: Historical Discoveries to New Horizons, the proceeding book of the 11th International Symposium on Spermatology (ISS) held at Oknawa Japan, has been recently published. The book includes ten chapters containing various topics from invertebrates to mammals including humans as well as plants and microorganisms. Scientific program with author's name of all presentations, seminars and workshops is in 11th ISS Profile. The historical importance of a series of the 1st to 11th ISS and the proceeding books which were published after these ISS symposia are described in Preface. The book written by invited speakers to the symposium from the basic scientific, agricultural, pharmacological, clinical fields will be very helpful for future scientific progress of readers.
