Purloined Organs: Psychoanalysis of Transplant Organs as Objects of Desire

1st ed. 2019 edition 

by H.A.E. Zwart (Author) 

This book addresses organ transplantation from a psychoanalytical perspective. Where other authors consider topics of informed consent, scarcity and organ trade, Zwart explores the ways in which the practice fundamentally challenges our basic experience and image of the body, revolving around issues such as embodiment, ownership and bodily integrity. In organ transplantation, the body emerges as something which we simultaneously have and are―constituting a whole, as well as a set of partial objects that can be transplanted and replaced, donated and sold.
