Flesh and Blood - Owning Our Bodies and Their Parts

For centuries, human bodies and their parts have been used for scientific and medical research, as a source of transplant organs and for the creation of artistic works. Drawing on the fields of ethics, law and history, this title develops an interdisciplinary account of the challenges arising from human tissue use and the options for regulation.
