Nelkin, Dorothy, and Lori Andrews. "Homo Economicus: Commercialization of Body Tissue in the Age of Biotechnology." Hastings Center Report (1998).

This article is not free, but the basis of the trial excerpt gave me some fresh ideas.


The article was written by Dorthi Nelkin and Lori Andrews on an internet site.  The article focuses on the debate for tissue ownership as a money making opportunity.  The article states that manufacturers may use body parts that have been extracted as ingredients or parts in some of the products they may produce.  The article directs attention to commercialization of body tissues beyond medical purposes.  It gives an example of how DNA from someone famous could be used in a marketed product and then sold.  The article gives me a new approach on my topic.  It creates another perception of how commercialization is and can be done.
