New Harvest includes contributions from specialists in medical,
philosophical, psychological, religious, and legal fields. These
essays are not simply a collection, but were developed from a
single conception of the four ethical concerns of trans plan tation
described in the first chapter. The indi vid ual chapters are all
parts of a structure unified by the search for ethical foundations
basic to the four concerns. Transplantation is surrounded by a
great deal of under standable emotional sensitivi ty. The authors
trust that words like "procurement," "harvest," and possibly other
expressions found in this book will not offend. We use the current
lan but do so with objectivity and respect for those who guage, are
personally involved in transplantation. We have made room for, and
indeed have invited, different and sometimes conflicting points of
view on the complicated ethical ques tions raised by transplant
operations. We can not assume that there is one right answer to
these questions, at least at our present level of scientific
knowledge and ethical wisdom. We do not presume to have identified
and analyzed all the ethical questions raised with equal
thoroughness. There are four ways in which the scope of the book is
limited. Identifying these limitations also helps designate what it
is in its own right. First, some questions have been given more
attention than others."
