About the Book

This collection features comprehensive overviews of the various ethical challenges in organ transplantation. International readings well-grounded in the latest developments in the life sciences are organized into systematic sections and engage with one another, offering complementary views. All core issues in the global ethical debate are covered: donating and procuring organs, allocating and receiving organs, as well as considering alternatives. Due to its systematic structure, the volume provides an excellent orientation for researchers, students, and practitioners alike to enable a deeper understanding of some of the most controversial issues in modern medicine.

Review :
»The book effectively guides its readers through various topics, issues, theoretical perspectives, and methodological orientations dominating the organtransplantation debate. As highlighted by the editors,it not only provides an encompassing overview but also emphasizes forms of discomfort and criticism.The book is therefore recommended not only for scientific but also for teaching purposes and can servea multidisciplinary student audience. Moreover, the book can benefit physicians, policymakers, and other professionals.« »This book is a must-read for anyone interested in a state-of-the-art overview of the organ donation field and the various ethical issues associated with it.« »Der Sammelband bietet [...] einen Einblick in die Vielfalt der thematischen und methodischen Zugänge in der gegenwärtigen medizinethischen Debatte zur Organtransplantation, der eine hervorragende Ergänzung zu anderen Überblickswerken bietet.« »While some of the more theoretical chapters may not be of interest to clinicians, they provide in depth explanations of some of the underlying foundations of transplant ethics and are worth reading for anyone interested in these topics. The more practical chapters are well worth reading and provide excellent references for further exploration of these topics.« »While some of the more theoretical chapters may not be of interest to clinicians, they provide in depth explanations of some of the underlying foundations of transplant ethics and are worth reading for anyone interested in these topics.
