Overview

Receiving a critical organ can save your life, but sometimes these organs are harvested from living people, who might be donating them for financial reasons. Does this kind of practice constitute exploitation of the economically disadvantaged? Does the system of selling and using body parts undermine humanity? This book explores the ethics of selling body parts, whether selling body parts benefits or exploits the poor, and the state of organ trafficking in other countries. Philosophical questions are interpreted through real life events and examples. Readers gain knowledge of how organ markets operate and affect different regions of the world through easily-accessible essays.
