Blurb: 
In these twelve stories we enter the darkest corridors of Americas hospitals. Meet a scientist who discovers how to predetermine and alter the sex of a pregnant womans fetus, and proceeds to contemplate his own gender...and a surgeon whose primary practice is removing organs and limbs from unwilling patients to redistribute them to unfortunate victims in impoverished countries. Filled with dark surprises, these splendid tales invite us to glimpse the world of high-tech medicine from a disturbing new angle.
