"Bench-to-bedside review: When is dead really dead – on the legitimacy of using neurologic criteria to determine death"
An article by Leslie M Whetstine (lwhets6623@aol.com)
Abstract:
"Determining death using neurologic criteria is probematic since a dead brain does not necessarily indicate a dead organism. This article explores the conceptual and clinical problems with whole brain death and argues for a philosophical change in the current biological definition of death."
