Human Body Nudity Legal Issues |
Bodies of Law Alan Hyde ISBN: 0691012288 (Paperback) ISBN: 0691012296 (Hardcover) ...[Hyde's] focus [is] on "the way American lawyers talk about the body: the range of metaphors...that cumulatively form a discourse of the body." Hyde teases out buried assumptions revealed by legal texts that define the body as machine or property, grant (or deny) it privacy rights, position reproductive capacity in terms of the market, permit or proscribe display of the body or specific body parts...A bit academic but full of provocative insights. --Booklist |
