This was first published in 2000: This text explores issues
surrounding the use of human cadavers and human tissues in science
and medicine. This is an area of increasing significance in
contemporary society, as more and more techniques become available
for manipulating human genes and human material (including embryos,
body organs and brain tissue). These issues are explored through
case studies from contemporary society. Some of the most topical
issues examined include plastination of human bodies as an art
form, the use of biopsies from surgical operations, the ethics of
using human DNA and stem cells in research, and the debate
surrounding the transplantation of animal tissue and organs into
humans.
