The second edition of this book continues the debate on whether transplantable organs of executed capital felons should be used to save American lives. The second edition provides the general public with the relevant data and information that is necessary for making an informed and intelligent decision on this crucial matter. The work sets out many of the federal constitutional arguments that capital felons would make, in an attempt to prevent their organs from being used to save lives. Based upon precedents by the United States Supreme Court, the book argues that the constitution permits transplantable organs to be involuntarily removed from executed capital felons.
