Description

India has made significant progress in the field of body and organ donation over the last few decades. But there still remain many challenges. This book takes stock of the journey of ancient and modern India in the field of body and organ donation and the stellar role played by organisations like Dadhichi Deh Dan Samiti to promote this cause.
This book demystifies the complex and multi-dimensional subject of body and organ donation. It explains the scientific, legal, ethical and financial aspects of the transplantation of organs from Indian as well as global perspective. 
The book takes a look at the past, present and the challenges ahead in the field of body and organ donation. It is a ready reckoner for anyone who wants to know about body and organ donation.
