Bioethics and Organ Transplantation in a Muslim Society: A Study in Culture, Ethnography, and Religion (Bioethics and the Humanities)

Book Description:

This is an ethnographic study of live, related kidney donation in Pakistan, based on Farhat Moazam?s participant-observer research conducted at a public hospital. Her narrative is both a "thick" description of renal transplant cases and the cultural, ethical, and family conflicts that accompany them, and an object lesson in comparative bioethics.
