Show Notes
Strapped-on brass noses, frog skin grafts, human organs grown in pigs: The world of replaceable body parts is both amazing and a bit unsettling. But who better give us a tour of the past and present of what medical engineering considers Plan B, than the inimitable science writer Mary Roach.
Guest:
Mary Roach – Science writer and author of “Replaceable You: Adventures in Human Anatomy”
Featuring music by Dewey Dellay and Jun Miyake
