Book Synopsis Death, Posthumous Harm, and Bioethics by : James Stacey Taylor

Download or read book Death, Posthumous Harm, and Bioethics written by James Stacey Taylor and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Death, Posthumous Harm, and Bioethics offers a highly distinctive and original approach to the metaphysics of death and applies this approach to contemporary debates in bioethics that address end-of-life and post-mortem issues. Taylor defends the controversial Epicurean view that death is not a harm to the person who dies and the neo-Epicurean thesis that persons cannot be affected by events that occur after their deaths, and hence that posthumous harms (and benefits) are impossible. He then extends this argument by asserting that the dead cannot be wronged, finally presenting a defence of revisionary views concerning posthumous organ procurement.
