Publisher's Synopsis
Prof Sas Strauss is alombekend as regsman, veral op die gebied van die geregtelike geneeskunde, maar sy belangstellings en liefhebberye strek veel wyer as vakverwante kwessies. Hy is veral 'n bekende in musiekkringe. Kollegas, oudstudente en regspraktisyns lewer bydraes van uiteenlopende aard in hierdie bundel. Topics in these essays include: the possibility of re-introducing the jury system in South Africa; epilepsy and driver's licences; on the rights of the foetus; medical experimentation: international rules and practice; the right of access by the defence to information contained in police dockets; the doctrine of common purpose in South African law; assisted reproduction: a fundamental right?; and HIV infection, blood tests and informed consent.
