Inhaltsangabe
The traditional equation of the death of a person with irreversible cessation of cardio respiratory function -- the absence of heartbeat, pulse, or respiration -- is being replaced by modern medicine with a definition of death in terms of irreversible destruction of function-brain death. In this book, the author thoughtfully and analytically surveys and evaluates the arguments for and against equating the death of a person with brain death. The ethical issues -- both theoretical and practical -- are explored against a rich and comprehensive background of current medical thought and practice and the most recent legal reasoning and opinion.
