In No Place for Ethics, Hill argues that contemporary judicial
review by the Supreme Court rests on its mistaken positivist
understanding of law-law simply because so ordered-as something
separate from ethics. To assert any relation between the two is to
contaminate both, either by turning law into an arm of ethics, or
making ethics an expression of law. To address this mistake, Hill
contends that an understanding of natural law theory provides the
basis for a constitutive relation between ethics and law without
confusing their distinct role in answering the basic question, how
should I behave in society? To secure that relation, the Court has
an overriding responsibility when carrying out its review to do so
with reference to normative ethics from which the US Constitution
is derived and to which it is accountable. While the Constitution
confirms, for example, the liberty interests of individuals, it
does not originate those interests which have their origin in human
rights that long preceded it. Essential to this argument is an
appreciation of ethics as objective and normatively based on
principles, like that of justice and truth that ought to inform
human behavior at its very springs. Applied in an analysis of five
major Supreme Court cases, this appreciation of ethics reveals how
wrongly decided these cases are.

Die Werbung kommt heute ohne die Zuhilfenahme des
imagetransportierenden Erscheinungsbildes kaum noch aus. Dahinter
steht der einfache Gedanke, dass sich das positive Image des
Abgebildeten ubertragt und es bestenfalls zur Identifikation mit
dem eigenen " Ich-Ideal " des Verbrauchers kommt. Welche
Auswirkungen hat diese Entwicklung auf das
persoenlichkeitsrechtliche Recht am eigenen Bild ? Welche
Interessen wohnen dem Recht inne und in welchem rechtlichen
Verhaltnis stehen diese zueinander ? Was ist das Zentrum des
wirtschaftlichen Interesses ? Ist das Recht am eigenen Bild der
UEbertragung im translativen oder konsitutiven Sinne zuganglich?
Auf diese Fragen gibt die vorliegende Arbeit Antworten und bettet
gleichzeitig die Entwicklung des Rechts in den
gesellschaftspolitischen Kontext ein.
This book is about three people from different walks of life, each
of whom experienced a life-changing episode of Guillain-Barre
Syndrome. Three dramatic stories in one.
Firstly, a story of the Author's remarkable almost complete
recovery following his encounter with the syndrome. It is a frank
and personal account of his struggle to regain much of what he had
lost in bodily function during one year of hospitalisation. It
should provide inspiration and possibly answer so many questions
typically asked by others afflicted with this syndrome.
Secondly, case studies written by two co-author contributors, one a
Calgary Veterinarian and mother of two, the other a retired
Vancouver resident who was struck with Guillain-Barre Syndrome
whilst shopping for a boat in England.
"There is no single answer to the question as to how life may
change after recovery from this disorder. Each case appears to be
unique. That is why I have chosen to include, not just a record of
my partial recovery, but also the recovery record of two additional
people, each different from one another's and each certainly
different from mine (Author's Preface)."
"We eventually identified a boat--only three feet short of what we
had wanted-- that was within our budget.
At this point Heather's brother, who lived nearby, said he would
like a share in the boat, to which we agreed. During this
discussion in his house I had to ask him to refrain from smoking,
as my throat was quite sore. I was feeling rather run down and
often felt cold. About the same time on a Saturday, I felt a
tingling in the finger tips of my left hand and found they were a
bit swollen. I mentioned it to Heather, but it did not seemserious.
It was, however, the first sign that I had contracted GBS. If only
I had known, the treatment might have been started earlier!
(Patrick Hill)"
"Probably the worst face of Guillain-Barre Syndrome is the effect
it has on loved ones. Severe, or not, chronic or not, it matters
little to the supporting family at the bedside of a patient. Fear,
puzzlement, and apprehension are all experienced by the loved ones.
Reading the case histories of Sarah and Patrick, one learns how
their spouses also suffered many frightening experiences, but in
spite of all that, they remained - obviously without second
thought, hesitation or doubt. True to their marriage vows, they
provided so much love, care and support. That was the shared
experience among the three of us (Author: Epilogue)."
