This book develops a sociological analysis of the emergence of regenerative medicine, providing critical insights into what it means to 'regenerate bodies'. It examines how human tissues and cells are being exchanged, commodified and commercialized by new health technologies. Through a discussion of emergent global 'tissue economies', the author explores the social dynamics of innovation in the fields of tissue engineering and stem cell science.
