Description: With cases from around the world on a wide range of subjects including prison conditions, employment, sexuality, reputation, and death, this ground-breaking book examines how judicial interpretations of dignity redefine what it means to be human in the modern world.

Review Quotes: "Readers interested in how ideas of dignity have evolved in court cases will find this book illuminating. Erin Daly admirably succeeds in showing how courts have given concrete meaning to this unbounded concept in particular cases."-- "Rebecca Cook, University of Toronto"
