Reviews

The book is an encyclopedic source ... This is an important book which warrants close study and thought by all those who share an in-depth or even cursory interest in the area of replacement therapy or organ transplantation. Ivor Lensworth Livingston, Howard University, Social Science and Medicine (Vol. 35, No. 5) can be profitably read by those looking for a concise source of details about recent trends in transplantation ... Readers will find many useful references and quotations, as well as interview materials gathered by the authors that are not available elsewhere ... Fox and Swazey have tried to convince readers, through a wealth of details and analysis, that organ replacement has gone too far. Peter A. Ubel, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, The Journal of Clinical Ethics, Volume 5, Number 2, Summer 1994
