Reflections on Life, Death, and the Constitution explores such issues by using classical standards of morality as a starting point for understanding them. Drawing on works of literature and philosophy, and on U.S. Supreme Court decisions, George Anastaplo examines the intimate relationship between human nature and constitutional law. 606 $aLaw$xPhilosophy 606 $aConstitutional law$zUnited States 606 $aLaw and ethics 606 $aRight to die$xLaw and legislation$zUnited States 606 $aCapital punishment$zUnited States 606 $aAbortion$xLaw and legislation$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLaw$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aConstitutional law 615 0$aLaw and ethics. 615 0$aRight to die$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aCapital punishment 615 0$aAbortion$xLaw and legislation 676 $a340/.112 700 $aAnastaplo$b George$f1925-$0857079 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456922703321 996 $aReflections on life, death, and the constitution$92455195 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02119oas 22007691a 450 001 9910229188403321 005 20251119213018.0 011 $a1742-6618 035 $a(OCoLC)55143053 035 $a(CONSER) 2004236697 035 $a(CKB)110978979272314 035 $a(EXLCZ)99110978979272314 100 $a20040514a19959999 uy 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurunu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aChild and family law quarterly 210 $aBristol, UK $cJordan Pub 300 $aRefereed/Peer-reviewed 311 08$a1358-8184 517 1 $aChild & Fam.
