Cutting to the Core: Exploring the Ethics of Contested Surgeries
David Benatar
When the benefits of surgery do not outweigh the harms, surgical interventions become morally contested. This book examines a number of such surgeries, such as: infant male circumcision and cutting the genitals of female children, the separation of conjoined twins, limb and face transplantation, cosmetic surgery, placebo surgery, and others.
