Download or read book Body Parts written by Michelle Voss Roberts and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2017-12-01 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christians have traditionally claimed that humans are created in the image of God (imago Dei), but they have consistently defined that image in ways that exclude people from full humanity. The most well-known definition locates the image in the rational soul, which is constructed in such a way that women, children, and many persons with disabilities are found deficient. Body Parts claims the importance of embodiment, difference, and limitation-not only as descriptions of the human condition but also as part of the imago Dei itself.

Book excerpt: "Their methods are crude and hurried, causing deformities at the join sites. Many times, the muscular system is not properly regenerated after assimilating the body part. The human would then have very distinctive limitations. For instance, if the hosts' leg doesn't mend properly, there would be noticeable mobility impairments. In the arms, there would be limited use. Rest assured that the Kaosians don't care. They are so cunning, so devious that they've walked among you for decades," he said, almost as if he enjoyed telling the story of human ignorance. "They've trained your eyes and your minds to accept their presence as normal. Sometimes, even as entertaining. Have you noticed over the years that there has been an outpouring and popularity of films concerning living dead and zombies? That's the Kaosians propaganda seducing your minds to accept when they see people moving about in that fashion. No one ever notices the sometimes telltale sign of the glow in their eyes for being either too repulsed at the sight of the person or too sympathetic at their condition, but always avoiding them. They're amassing an army never seen on this planet. The so-called Regulators are humans that want to be turned as vessels for the ET hosts. They willingly fight their own kind to be used by the Kaosians hosts upon their earthly demise or grave injury." He went silent as he only stood watching, waiting for Doc's response. There was none.

Download or read book Body Parts written by E. Richard Gold and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Body Parts, E. Richard Gold examines whether the body and materials derived from it--such as human organs and DNA--should be thought of as market commodities and subject to property law. Analyzing a series of court decisions concerning property rights, Gold explores whether the language and assumptions of property law can help society determine who has rights to human biological materials. Gold observes that the commercial opportunities unleashed by advances in biotechnology present a challenge to the ways that society has traditionally valued the human body and human health. In a balanced discussion of both commercial and individual perspectives, Gold asserts the need to understand human biological materials within the context of human values, rather than economic interests. This perceptive book will be welcomed by scholars and other professionals engaged in questions regarding bioethics, applied ethics, the philosophy of value, and property and intellectual property rights. Given the international aspects of both intellectual property law and biotechnology, this book will be of interest throughout the world and especially valuable in common-law (most English-speaking) countries.
Download or read book Body Parts written by Christopher E. Forth and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2005 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many forms of discourse, specific parts of the human anatomy may signify the whole body/person. In this volume, scholars from a variety of historical and cultural studies disciplines examine scientific, medical, popular, and literary texts, paying special attention to the different strategies employed in order to establish authority over the body through the management of a single part. By considering body parts that are usually ignored by scholars, these essays render the idea of a single, coherent body untenable by demonstrating that the body is not a transhistorical entity, but rather, deeply fragmented and fundamentally situated in a number of different contexts.

Despite his intimidating looks, Esme finds herself strangely -- almost romantically -- drawn to both his oversized brain and oversized heart.The second new arrival is Zack, an impossibly handsome late transfer from the UK who has the girls at school instantly mesmerized. Soon even sensible Esme has forgotten Norman, and all three sisters are in a flat-out hex war to win Zack. But while the magic is flying, only Norman seems to notice that students who wander off alone with Zack end up with crushed bones and memory loss. Or worse, missing entirely. HEARTS & OTHER BODY PARTS is a wickedly addictive novel about love, monsters, and loyalty. And oh yeah, a Japanese corpse-eating demon cat.
Download or read book Body Parts of Empire written by Nerissa Balce and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Body Parts of Empire is a study of abjection in American visual culture and popular literature from the Philippine-American War (1899–1902). During this period, the American national territory expanded beyond its continental borders to islands in the Pacific and the Caribbean. Simultaneously, new technologies of vision emerged for imagining the human body, including the moving camera, stereoscopes, and more efficient print technologies for mass media. Rather than focusing on canonical American authors who wrote at the time of U.S. imperialism, this book examines abject texts—images of naked savages, corpses, clothed native elites, and uniformed American soldiers—as well as bodies of writing that document the goodwill and violence of American expansion in the Philippine colony. Contributing to the fields of American studies, Asian American studies, and gender studies, the book analyzes the actual archive of the Philippine-American War and how the racialization and sexualization of the Filipino colonial native have always been part of the cultures of America and U.S. imperialism. By focusing on the Filipino native as an abject body of the American imperial imaginary, this study offers a historical materialist optic for reading the cultures of Filipino America.

Download or read book Commodification of Body Parts in the Global South written by Firouzeh Nahavandi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-11 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes the introduction of a development-related perspective to scholarly critique of the human body’s commodification. Nahavandi contends that the commodification of human body parts reflects a modern form of such well-known historical phenomena as slavery and colonization, and can be considered a new and additional form of appropriation and extraction of resources from the Global South. What are the commonalities between hair trade, surrogacy, kidney sale and attraction of brains? The author argues that these all characterize a world where increasingly everything can be traded or is considered to be tradeable. A world where, similar to any other goods, body parts have entered the global market either legally or illegally. Through a series of multidisciplinary comparative studies, the book explores how forms commodification of the human body are fuelled by issues of poverty in the Global South, and inequality in transnational relations.
