Details

Medical Law and Ethics covers the core legal principles, key cases, and statutes that govern medical law alongside the key ethical debates and dilemmas that exist in the field to ensure that the law is firmly placed in context.

Carefully constructed features highlight these debates, drawing out the European angles, religious beliefs, and feminist perspectives which influence legal regulations. Other features such as 'a shock to the system', 'public opinion' and 'reality check' introduce further socio-legal aspects and contribute to the lively and engaging manner in which the subject is approached.

This book is accompanied by an Online Resource Centre which includes:-

  • Bibliography and further reading
  • Links to key cases
  • Author video podcast
  • Web links
  • Links to key sites with information on medical law and ethics
