520 1  "New developments in biotechnology radically alter our 
       relationship with our bodies. Body tissues can now be used
       for commercial purposes, while external objects, such as 
       pacemakers, can become part of the body. Property in the 
       Body: Feminist Perspectives transcends the everyday 
       responses to such developments, suggesting that what we 
       most fear is the feminisation of the body. We fear our 
       bodies are becoming objects of property, turning us into 
       things rather than persons. This book evaluates how well-
       grounded this fear is, and suggests innovative models of 
       regulating what has been called 'the new Gold Rush' in 
       human tissue. 
520 8  This is an up-to-date and wide-ranging synthesis of market
       developments in body tissue, bringing together bioethics, 
       feminist theory and lessons from countries that have 
       resisted commercialisation of the body, in a theoretically
       sophisticated and practically significant approach."--BOOK
