Recent developments in medical science and technology have rendered obsolete the traditional medical criteria for determining death in a small but growing number of terminal patients. Philosophical problems encountered in attempts to develop a more sophisticated set of operational procedures are discussed. Both the traditional conditions indicating death as well as more recent reformulations required to pronounce a state of brain death in those moribund individuals in whom the traditional signs have been obscured are reported. Finally, some of the medical, legal, and social considerations which arise from recognition of the brain death definition are discussed briefly
