Dead Wrong: The Ethics of Posthumous Harm
New York, NY: Oxford University Press (2019)
Abstract
It is possible for an act to wrongfully harm a person, even if that person is dead. David Boonin explains the puzzle of posthumous harm and examines its ethical implications for such issues as posthumous organ removal, posthumous publication of private documents, damage to graves, and posthumous punishment.Author's Profile
