Evolving Jurisprudence in Indian Society is a compelling and thoroughly researched legal work authored by Dr. Y. S. Kiran Kumar and published by Crestwood Publishers. This book delves into one of the most profound and sensitive intersections of law, medicine, and human rights in the Indian context. It examines the Right to Life under Article 21, the distinction between the right to die and the right to die with dignity, passive euthanasia in Indian law, and the legal framework surrounding living wills and advance medical directives. The book also analyses landmark judicial contributions, medical ethics, end-of-life care, and comparative international perspectives, while thoughtfully addressing social, religious, and cultural dimensions. Dr. Kiran Kumar, a distinguished legal academician with over 16 years of experience and a PhD in Law from Telangana University, brings both scholarly rigour and practical insight to bridge the gap between jurisprudence and policy implementation. This book is an essential read for legal professionals, academics, medical practitioners, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of end-of-life rights in India.
