New Definitions of Death for Organ Donation: This book critically examines the moral soundness of the two definitions of death used in organ donation-transplantation: "e brain death"e (heart-beating) and "e controlled cardiac/circulatory death"e (non-heart-beating). The author carries out a multidisciplinary study of the crucial moral issues surrounding these new definitions to answer the question: are the donors truly dead at the time of organ removal The book probes the history of these protocols, and the rationales of pro-"e brain death"e Catholic scholars who assert that brain-dead individuals are dead because, without a functioning brain, they have undergone a substantial change. The author`s arguments, firmly grounded in both classical metaphysics and contemporary biophilosophy, demonstrate that the new definitions of death are unsound because they contradict both Aristotelian-Thomistic anthropology and holistic biophilosophy.The book also looks at the new definitions in terms of Christian ethics. It provides a detailed critical analysis of John Paul II`s 2000 Address to the Transplantation Society, showing that, contrary to popular belief, the Catholic Church has not given any formal approval to the "e brain death"e protocol.
