How ought the law to deal with novel challenges regarding the use
and control of human biomaterials? As it stands the law is
ill-equipped to deal with these. Quigley argues that advancing
biotechnology means that the law must confront and move boundaries
which it has constructed; in particular, those which delineate
property from non-property in relation to biomaterials. Drawing
together often disparate strands of property discourse, she offers
a philosophical and legal re-analysis of the law in relation to
property in the body and biomaterials. She advances a new defence,
underpinned by self-ownership, of the position that persons ought
to be seen as the prima facie holders of property rights in their
separated biomaterials. This book will appeal to those interested
in medical and property law, philosophy, bioethics, and health
policy amongst others.
