This book gave me nightmares! Despite the bad dreams I am glad I read it. It is a thought-provoking look into the world of the Red Market, where bodies are for rent and organs, blood, and eggs are treated as commodities. Fascinating! (In a nightmarish sort of way).

Well researched on a number of body commodity topics, for example, that children in poor countries may be taken from their parents in order to make them available for adoption. I had no idea.
