Books by Andrew Michael Flescher

Andrew Flescher objects to legalizing organ sales among living donors by going beyond concerns traditionally cited about social justice, commodification, and patient safety, and discusses what motivates major and costly acts of selflessness. This is the first book to deeply consider alternative solutions when re-examining the organ sales debate.

Most of us are content to see ourselves as ordinary people - unique in ways, talented in others, but still among the ranks of ordinary mortals. The author probes our contented state by asking important questions: How should "ordinary" people respond when others need our help, whether the situation is a crisis, or something less?

Drawing connections between Augustine and Aristotle, this book emphasizes forming altruistic habits that can lead us to better moral choices throughout the course of our lives.
