It compares recent developments in English law in the light of the Human Rights Act 1998, with those in America, which has seen an enormous growth in litigation over the last two decades. In England and Wales, the 'born alive rule' is currently applied only to third parties who injure the fetus, which is later born alive and dies as a result of these injuries. In some American states, a rule of similar origins has been extended so as to criminalize recent mothers whose acts or omissions in pregnancy caused injury or death to the resulting child. The author examines the implications of the laws in both systems, and also looks at the rights of the mother and child in relation to the obligations of the state to protect both of them."--Provided by publisher. 606 $aPregnant women$xLegal status, laws, etc$zEngland$xCriminal provisions 606 $aPregnant women$xLegal status, laws, etc$zWales$xCriminal provisions 606 $aPregnant women$xLegal status, laws, etc$zUnited States$xCriminal provisions 606 $aFetus$xLegal status, laws, etc$zEngland$xCriminal provisions 606 $aFetus$xLegal status, laws, etc$zWales$xCriminal provisions 606 $aFetus$xLegal status, laws, etc$zUnited States$xCriminal provisions 615 0$aPregnant women$xLegal status, laws, etc.$xCriminal provisions. 615 0$aPregnant women$xLegal status, laws, etc.$xCriminal provisions. 615 0$aPregnant women$xLegal status, laws, etc.$xCriminal provisions. 615 0$aFetus$xLegal status, laws, etc.$xCriminal provisions. 615 0$aFetus$xLegal status, laws, etc.$xCriminal provisions. 615 0$aFetus$xLegal status, laws, etc.$xCriminal provisions. 676 $a345.4202 700 $aCave$b Emma$01487160 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910796600103321 996 $aThe Mother of All Crimes$93706896 997 $aUNINA
