Description

"Support is growing for increasing living donor transplantation (LDT) of kidney and, to a lesser extent, liver segment and even lung lobe." "This invaluable book shows that in the light of current practice and attitudes, increasing LDT levels is feasible. It is one of the few works to systematically analyse the ethical and legal issues involved in LDT use in the light of empirical evidence, including new data derived from a unique programme of interviews and questionnaires with transplant professionals, living donors and recipients. Readers are led to an understanding of when LDT is ethically and legally acceptable and to the strong case for using it much more extensively."--BOOK JACKET.
