Description
Synthesizes the social, legal, medical, religious, and philosophical problems inherent in current social policy allowing for organ donation under the brain-death criterion. Henderson offers an investigation of the ethical quandaries inherent in the way transplantable organs are currently procured. He advocates the abandonment of the brain-death criterion in light of its adverse failures, and concludes by laying the groundwork for a new policy of death in an effort to further the good of organ donation and transplantation. From publisher description.
