[edit] Wasn't the USSR the first?

I believe that the USSR was the first to do a head transplant, not China. http://www.mymultiplesclerosis.co.uk/stranger-than-fiction/head-transplant.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.242.191.162 (talk) 22:42, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Book

An interesting book on this subject is "If We Can Keep a Severed Head Alive: Discorporation and U.S. Patent 4,666,425" by Chet Fleming. I haven't read it. (I have only read about it in another book which is not about head transplants.) Maybe someone who knows more about it can comment on it in the article. Two Halves 12 January 2003

Removed:

The first head transplants were conducted in 1812, although there was only a marginal amount of success.

Warnings about the future are subjective, not objective.
