Abstract

"This volume traces the past and present of public dissection. From Italian anatomy theaters to American dissecting laboratories, it chronicles the attacks on anatomy in the Middle Ages, the influence of Renaissance anatomist Andreas Vesalius, the procurement of bodies through execution and body snatchers, and the withdrawal of dissectors behind medical school doors in the early 20th century"--

Abstract

Aucune civilisation, des plus frustes aux plus "évoluées", n'a pu esquiver l'aspect dramatique du devenir du corps mort. Ses laideurs et ses puanteurs qui annoncent de pourrissement de la chair signent la dissolution de l'être. D'abord, retenir l'image du vivant est une démarche quasi universelle, ainsi que le vérifie la coutume extrêmement répandue de la toilette du mort. Mais très vite, c'est avec la pourriture qu'il faut jouer : horrible et fascinante, elle oriente tous les rites funéraires. Selon le trajet symbolique propre à chaque culture, tout est mis en oeuvre pour l'apprivoiser (exposition du cadavre), la cacher (linceul, sarcophage), l'enrayer définitivement (embaumement, momification, incinération, ingestion cannibalique, cyrogénisation) ou seulement la retarder (soins corporels, thanatopraxie), ou bien l'accélérer (exposition, abandon dans les tours de silence). Mais derrière tous ces usages se dessine une exigence universelle : stabiliser dans un support indestructible, dur et pur, l'être du défunt. Ce stade marque la réconciliation de la communauté avec son mort, une communauté apaisée qui peut enfin oublier que mourir, c'est pourrir. Louis-Vincent Thomas est l'auteur de nombreux ouvrages sur la mort, notamment Anthropolie de la mort, paru aux Editions Payot.

Abstract

Biotechnology and the Challenge of Property addresses the question of how the advancement of property law is capable of controlling the interests generated by the engineering of human tissues. Through a comparative consideration of non-Western societies and industrialized cultures, this book addresses the impact of modern biotechnology, and its legal accommodation on the customary conduct and traditional beliefs which shape the lives of different communities. Nwabueze provides an introduction to the legal regulation of the evolving uses of human tissues, and its implications for traditional knowledge, beliefs and cultures.

Abstract

Case studies of twelve existing human biospecimen repositories performed to evaluate their utility for genomics- and proteomics-based cancer research and to identify ?best practices? in collection, processing, annotation, storage, privacy, ethical concerns, informed consent, business plans, operations, intellectual property rights, public relations, marketing, and education that would be useful in designing a national biospecimen network.

Abstract

Whether reburied, concealed, stored, abandoned or publicly displayed, human remains raise a vast number of questions regarding social, legal and ethical uses by communities, public institutions and civil society organisations. This work presents a ground-breaking account of the treatment and commemoration of dead bodies resulting from incidents of genocide and mass violence. Through a range of international case studies across multiple continents, it explores the effect of dead bodies or body parts on various political, cultural and religious practices. Multidisciplinary in scope, it will appeal to readers interested in this crucial phase of post-conflict reconciliation, including students and researchers of history, anthropology, sociology, archaeology, law, politics and modern warfare.

Abstract

The emotional and social components of teaching medical students to be good doctorsThe pelvic exam is considered a fundamental procedure for medical students to learn; it is also often the one of the first times where medical students are required to touch a real human being in a professional manner. In Feeling Medicine, Kelly Underman gives us a look inside these gynecological teaching programs, showing how they embody the tension between scientific thought and human emotion in medical education. Drawing on interviews with medical students, faculty, and the people who use their own bodies to teach this exam, Underman offers the first in-depth examination of this essential, but seldom discussed, aspect of medical education. Through studying, teaching, and learning about the pelvic exam, she contrasts the technical and emotional dimensions of learning to be a physician. Ultimately, Feeling Medicine explores what it means to be a good doctor in the twenty-first century, particularly in an era of corporatized healthcare.
