China has one: Daniel Asa Rose, Larry's Kidney.

We need one: Sally Satel, ed. When Altruism Isn't Enough.

Background:

More than 1,000 Americans die every year awaiting a kidney transplant. Surgeons in the U.S. perform about 7,000 of the transplants annually, but that doesn't come close to meeting demand. As many as 250,000 patients require kidney dialysis — all of them subsidized by Medicare — but half of them are deemed not sick enough to warrant referral to a transplant program. The wait for a kidney transplant from a cadaver-donor can take seven years.
