Death Rites by Robert G Lee

The increasing capacity of medicine to intervene to save lives demands that we ask more and more questions about what death is, and why it matters. This series of studies on law, ethics and medicine contributes to the debate on when and how it is permissable to terminate life, to warn of death, and to deal with tragedy in its aftermath. The essays are wide-ranging, provocative and timely. Accessible to those from the worlds of both law and medicine, this work focuses uniquely upon an issue which is increasingly significant for both sets of practitioners.
