ISBN10: 3796512720, ISBN13: 9783796512728, [publisher: Schwabe Verlag Basel] Hardcover The Anyuak definition of what a human person is appears to be a relatively easy one, at least in theory, because it is based upon purely physical criteria The metaphysical dimensions of a human being are completely neglected in this definition and are only.
