The right to bodily integrity has become a notable controversial
issue within moral, political and legal discourse and this right is
regarded as one of the most precious rights that persons have,
alongside the right to life. Recent scholarly debate has focused
attention on the content, scope and force of this right and has
lead to the recognition that a better understanding of the nature
of this right will contribute to determining whether and why a
multitude of clinical and research activities in medical practice
should be seen as permissible or impermissible. The essays selected
for this volume examine topics such as pregnancy and reproduction,
altering children's bodies, transplantation, controversial
modifications and surgeries, and experimentation and dead bodies.
This is the first collection of scholarly research articles to
provide a comprehensive overview of the ethical and legal aspects
of the right to bodily integrity and its implications in theory and
practice.
