On Face Transplantation: Life and Ethics in Experimental Biomedicine

by Samuel Taylor-Alexander

Drawing together interview material, medical publications, and first-hand accounts, this book shows that what is being remade in the burgeoning medical field of face transplantation is not only the lives of patients, but also the very ways that state institutions, surgeons, and families make sense of rights, claims for inclusion, and life itself.
