An multi-focused academic study of the conflicts over brain-death in Israel between 1967-1986 with special attention paid to the role played by Jewish law. The book traces the impact of neurological death during the critical twenty years between the advent of heart transplantation until the Israeli Rabbinate issued (and then rescinded) a decision allowing these critical procedures to take place in Israel.
