Features: This book closely combines with China's legislation and judicial practice of personality rights. Based on extensive reference to advanced legislative experiences and theoretical achievements from abroad, it conducts systematic and in-depth research on the basic concepts, system, general personality rights, various specific personality rights, and spiritual damage compensation. The author of this book believes that the status of personality rights in modern civil law is becoming increasingly prominent, and personality rights should be independent chapters in the Civil Code. It is necessary to establish a complete system of personality rights that combines general and specific personality rights. The law of personality rights should not only protect typed personality rights but also protect various types of personality interests. The author believes that specific personality rights should include types such as the right to life, the right to the body, the right to health, the right to credit, the right to privacy, and the right to chastity. The author also argues that a system of personality rights claims should be established to perfect China's claims system. The remedies for personality rights damage mainly include: stopping infringement, restoring reputation, offering apologies, and spiritual damage compensation, among others.
