{"product_id":"the-right-to-life-and-jon-yorke-9780754677611","title":"The Right to Life and the Value of Life: Orientations in Law, Politics and Ethics","description":"This groundbreaking book is the first collection to investigate the law, political science and ethical perspectives collectively in relation to the right and value of life. Its contributions from international roster of scholars are organized around five themes: a theoretical positioning of life and death; War, armed conflict and detention; Death as punishment; Medical parameters for ending life; and medical policies for the preservation of life. In studying this issue in its contemporary contexts of \"right\" and \"value,\" the volume fills the current scholarly lacuna in the general subject of the orientations of life. It presents a much-needed examination of key issues in a broad practical and theoretical context, and holds broad appeal for scholars, researchers, and students occupied with issues of war, armed conflict, the death penalty, and various contemporary medico-legal scenarios.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jon Yorke\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0754677613\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780754677611\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/28\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 464\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2010 pg. 196","brand":"Jon Yorke","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086827106559,"sku":"9780754677611","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e4d89ded-c46b-4e16-a012-21c0d68a515d.jpg?v=1769096805","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-right-to-life-and-jon-yorke-9780754677611","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
