This book tells about an incredibly ambitious undertaking — attempts to transplant a human head for the first time in history. Medical historian Brandy Skillace writes how the experiments of transplant scientists laid the foundation for technologies that save lives to this day. In the middle of the last century, the Soviet Union and the United States not only competed in space and military technologies, but also fought for supremacy in the field of transplantology. The work of scientists from both countries has given impetus to the unprecedented development of medical technologies. The story centers on the amazing fate of neurosurgeon Robert Joseph White, who performed operations to transplant animal heads.
