Sommario/riassunto

Bringing together the histories of blood transfusion and organ transplantation, this book shows how these two fields redrew the lines between self and non-self, the living and the dead, and humans and animals. Lederer also challenges assumptions that popular fears about organ transplantation necessarily reflect timeless human concerns.
