Lederer also challenges assumptions that popular fears about organ transplantation necessarily reflect timeless human concerns. 330 $bOrgan transplantation is one of the most dramatic interventions in modern medicine. Since the 1950's thousands of people have lived with 'new' hearts, kidneys, lungs, corneas, and other organs and tissues transplanted into their bodies. From the beginning, though, there was simply a problem: surgeons often encountered shortages of people willing and able to give their organs and tissues. To overcome this problem, they often brokered financial arrangements. Yet an ethic of gift exchange coexisted with the 'commodification of the body'. The same duality characterized the field of blood transfusion, which was essential to the development of modern surgery. This book is the first to bring together the histories of blood transfusion and organ transplantation. It shows how these two fields redrew the lines between self and non-self, the living and the dead, and humans and animals. Drawing on newspapers, magazines, legal cases, films and the papers and correspondence of physicians and surgeons, Lederer challenges the assumptions of some bioethicists and policymakers that popular fears about organ transplantation necessarily reflect timeless human concerns and preoccupations with the body. She shows how notions of the body- intact, in parts, living and dead- are shaped by the particular culture in which they are embedded. 606 $aTransplantation of organs, tissues, etc$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aBlood$xTransfusion$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aTransplantation of organs, tissues, etc.$xHistory 615 0$aBlood$xTransfusion$xHistory 676 $a362.17/84 700 $aLederer$b Susan E$0909496 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456504803321 996 $aFlesh and blood$92035097 997 $aUNINA
