INTENTION AND CAUSATION IN MEDICAL NON-KILLING
Author/Editor: WILLIAMS
Published: 01/04/07
Published by: MACMILLAN DISTRIBUTION SERVICES P/L
ISBN: 9781844720279
Media: hard cover
Edition: 1e

Analyzing the concepts of intention and causation in euthanasia, this timely new book explores a broad selection of disciplines, including criminal and medical law, medical ethics, philosophy and social policy and suggests an alternative solution to the one currently used by the courts, based on grading different categories of killing into a formalized justificatory defence.This book explores how culpability, blameworthiness and liability are ascribed and how ascertaining mens rea and actus reus are problematic in an end-of-life decision-making scenario.
