The use of embryonic stem cells has ignited fierce debate across the spiritual and political spectrum.

Stephen HAWKING has spent his life exploring the mysteries of the cosmos, now there is another universe that fascinates him - the one hidden inside our bodies - our own personal galaxies of cells.
