Abstract
This book considers, in a comparative perspective, important trends and issues affecting the law on rights of personality in jurisdictions drawn from the families of common law, civilian law, and mixed legal systems. The main focus is on the private law of personality rights but due regard is paid to the impact of constitutional legislation and other instruments protecting human rights.
