Abstract

Examines the reasons for scarcity of transplantable human organs in the American medical system. We call it lifeboat ethics. When there is not enough of this or that scarce good, who should die that others might survive? Born in the 19th century, when shipwrecks were frequent and lifeboats scarce, it has become a 21st century dilemma. Who should get the last hospital bed, the scarce medical drug, the limited educational doctor, the needed transplantable human heart? Tom Koch considers both lifeboat ethics and its modern application to the distribution of transplantable human organs in the United States. He shows that the scarcity of organs is exacerbated where not created by racial and regional inequalities inherent in the American health care and transplant system. The real question, he concludes, is not "who should die" when there is not enough to go around, but the reasons why scarcity pervades at all.

Abstract

Devoted to experimental and theoretical investigations on all aspects of the formation and transformation of biological structure. Starting as a journal devoted to gross anatomy, histology and neuroanatomy, it has continually broadened its scope to also cover work from cell biology, developmental biology and neuroscience, and the emerging fields of tissue engineering, artificial organs, in vitro systems, transplantation biology and computational neuroscience.
