Stuart J. Younger, Robert M. Arnold, and Renie D. Schapiro have recently described the "deconstruction of what seemed to be a scientific, philosophical, and even public consensus about the definition and determination of death'' (Youngner, Arnold, & Schapiro, 1999, p. xv). Perhaps at no other time since Henry K. Beecher chaired the Ad Hoc Committee of the Harvard Medical School and formulated a "A Definition of Irreversible Coma'' (Ad Hoc Committee of the Harvard Medical School, 1968) has there been so much ferment over the theoretical understanding of death and its clinical implications. Based on current discontents in bioethics writing, such a deconstruction would not be entirely unwelcome.
