Preface Research on embryonic stem cells continues to move very quickly, as reflected in the positive responses that I received for the chapters in this volume, which builds upon a relatively recent previous volume. The kinds of studies continue to expand and diversify, and methodologies are continuously being refined and improved. Amongst areas of intense activity are those related to the very early commitment of stem cells to particular lineages and progression of differentiation to mature cell stages. I am very grateful once again to the contributors who have shared their insights as well as new and improved methods for others already in or just entering the field. I would like to acknowledge Dr. John Walker, Editor in Chief of the Methods in Molecular Biology series, for his continuous support and Patrick Marton, Executive Editor of the series, for encouragement during development of the volume. I am also very grateful to David Casey for being available to answer all of my questions
