"What does it mean to be a human person?" This volume is a
historical inquiry into that foundational, deceptively simple
question. Viewing the human person from various perspectives --
law, education, business, media, religion, medicine, community
life, gender, art -- sixteen historians of American life explore
how our understanding of personhood has changed over time and how
that changing understanding has significantly affected our ideas
about morality and human rights, our conversations about public
policy, and our American culture as a whole.
