Synopsis

Medical advances enable us to make our bodies available to others in an increasing number of ways, for instance, via organ, tissue, egg and sperm donation and surrogate motherhood. This cutting-edge book develops new ways of understanding the ethical, social and cultural aspects of different such bodily exchanges.

Kristin Zeiler, PhD, is Senior Lecturer and Docent at the Department of Thematic Studies: Technology and Social Change, Linköping University, Sweden, and Pro Futura Scientia Fellow at the Swedish Collegium for Advanced Study, Uppsala University, Sweden. Zeiler examines ethical, social and cultural aspects of biotechnological interventions and explores how medical treatment, the use of new technology and experience of pain and illness can form our ways of engaging with others and the world, and inform our self-understandings. Her research areas include medical humanities, bioethics, philosophy of medicine and feminist theory, and among her publications is the edited volume (with L.F. Käll) Feminist Phenomenology and Medicine (2014). Zeiler's articles have appeared in journals such as Bioethics, Feminist Theory and Medicine, Health Care and Philosophy.
