The purpose is to argue that potential organ donors should be rewarded for their generosity .In addition, Satel argues the current system of altruistic donation is yet noble, it is not the most motivating course for organ donation out of all the alternatives to save people’s lives. The author gives examples including her own organ recipient experience to illustrate how the current system can be altered and improved otherwise the only people who would volunteer to donate organs would be ones that no longer needed them, the deceased.

Some Politicians and the British Medical Association (BMA) would like to see the UK adopt the ‘opt out’ (presumed consent) approach. This would mean that every individual in the UK would be willing to donate their organs after death; this would be done by signing the ‘opt out’ register.
