About this book

Dignity: Its History and Meaning by Rosen, Michael. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780674064430.

Dignity plays a central role in thinking about law and human rights, but there is sharp disagreement about its meaning. Combining conceptual precision with a broad historical background, Rosen puts these controversies in context and offers a novel, constructive proposal. He also answers a puzzling question: why treat the dead with dignity?
