Book Description
Paul Craddock's Spare Parts offers an original look at the history of medicine itself through the rich, compelling, and delightfully macabre story of transplant surgery from ancient times to the present day. How did an architect help pioneer blood transfusion in the 1660's? Why did eighteenth-century dentists buy the live teeth of poor children? And what role did a sausage skin and an enamel bath play in making kidney transplants a reality? We think of transplant surgery as one of the medical wonders of the modern world. But transplant surgery is as ancient as the pyramids, with a history more surprising than we might expect. Paul Craddock takes us on a journey - from sixteenth-century skin grafting to contemporary stem cell transplants - uncovering stories of operations performed by unexpected people in unexpected places. Bringing together philosophy, science and cultural history, Spare Parts explores how transplant surgery constantly tested the boundaries between human, animal, and machine, and continues to do so today. Witty, entertaining, and illuminating, Spare Parts shows us that the history - and future - of transplant surgery is tied up with questions about not only who we are, but also what we are, and what we might become.

Book Description
Our shop sells any necessary human parts you need, or give one stop service to you for the transplanting of the things you've purchased. Or you may have these parts transplanted in any shop you like. One thing to remember is if you purchase a thing and the service of having it transplanted at our shop, you have the full guarantee. On the other hand, if you have it transplanted in another shop, we give no guarantee to any consequences for that, or for any mishaps on the transportation. This is the thumb rule of our shop. We have a variety of goods available in our shop. These can be grouped into two: the natural organs, entrails and parts taken from the human body; and the artificial machine parts. The former things are a bit complicated in the sense that the second hand parts used, cut and cleaned after purchasing the bids of corpses; and the new products manufactured through the aid of cloning research. The human parts purchased from the bids of corpses are the cheapest. They are cheap, but they are deceptive. What I mean is when a person dies, the mortuary in-charge usually asks the question to the bereaved family if they want a traditional way of burial service or if they want to dispose the dead body for a sale of bid. If the family makes a choice of the second type, the mortuary in-charges make contact with us, shopkeepers of human parts shops. Sometimes, the bids go high in competition as there is a great demand. So some shops cut out the limbs and parts of the bodies, put some polishing on these, and cheat the customers, the poor victims. I am not bragging about my shop. We never sell such things at all. Reputation about the quality of goods and due prices is more important than profit making. In order to do that, we have to exercise our brains.
