CONWAY REDEFINING DEATH Medical science is continually continually improving its technology, presenting us with miracles and dilemmas we have scarcely had the chance to imagine. imagine. One of these, which we are desperately trying to deal with, is to define what death actually is - medically, legally, religiously, and philosophically. philosophically. Until the last few decades, defining death was basically pretty simple. Once heartbeat and respiration had irreversibly irreversibly ceased, a person was considered considered dead. Now, thanks to our sophisticated equipment and the special time require ments of transplant surgery, we cannot always utilize this traditional definition. A nineteenth-century person person would probably have been horrified at the thought of removing the heart from a freshly dead body and transplanting transplanting it into the chest of another another (sounds like a great plot for a Victorian tale of horror). And the idea of maintaining heartbeat and respiration with machines would likely have brought laughter. Now we take such things for granted. However, we still have to deal- with the implications of such marvels.
