Karlheinz Muscheler: Das Recht des Todes, Gebunden

Klappentext

'The Law of Death': The book establishes a new field of law: the doctrine of dying and death, 'legal thanatology'. All areas of law are considered together and brought into conversation with other sciences. It's about 'the law against death' (homicide offenses in criminal and civil law), 'the right to death' (euthanasia, suicide, assisted suicide, killing on request), 'the law of death' (definition of death) and 'the law of the dead' (status of the corpse, autopsy, transplantation, burial law, post-mortem personal rights, expropriation of the dead). Comprehensive criticism is supplemented by proposals for reform.
