Since the mid-nineteenth century, the U.S. courts have attempted,
in a series of landmark cases, to resolve bitter conflicts over an
individual's right to bodily autonomy. In this introductory volume,
Lynne Curry draws on close readings of U.S. Supreme Court and other
twentieth-century legal decisions, supporting case materials,
public health records, and legal and medical theories to trace the
ways in which the courts' rulings have shaped the development of
such controversial issues as mandatory vaccination, abortion and
the right to die. An extensive collection of important documents is
provided, along with a glossary of key people, events, and
concepts; a chronology; a table of cases cited; an annotated
bibliography; and a comprehensive index.
