David
Price. Human tissue in transplantation and research : a model legal and
ethical donation framework. Cambridge University Press, 2009. K3611.T7P74
2009 This
book discusses the policy dilemmas created by deficiencies and shortfalls in
the supply of human organs for transplantation and human tissue for
research. The author weighs the interests of the parties involved and
sets out a legal and policy framework that aims to protect the interests of
donors and professional users through tailored property entitlements, but
without presupposing rights to trade in “original” materials. |

Ediberto
Román. Citizenship and its exclusions : a classical, constitutional, and
critical race critique. New York University Press, 2010. K3224.R66
2010 This
book provides an analysis of citizenship’s contradictions, explaining that
citizenship has historically been exclusive and illusive for many. It
offers an exploration of citizenship from antiquity to the present and
examines how past precedents have influenced U.S. law and policy regulating
the citizenship status of indigenous and territorial island people as well as
how different levels of membership have created a de facto subordinate
citizenship status for many members of American society. |
