It examines a broad range of issues, from the structure and organisation of the NHS, through the rules of clinical negligence, as well as focussing on the legal and ethical concerns around such deeply contentious areas as surrogacy, organ donation, abortion and euthanasia. Written very much with newcomers to the area in mind, Leanne Bell lucidly outlines not just what the law is, but how it has developed over time and also provides insights as to how advances in medical technology and techniques may call for it to evolve in the future.Always learning.Medical laws and legislationEnglandTextbooksMedical laws and legislation344.42041Bell Leanne1374934MiAaPQMiAaPQUtOrBLWBOOK9910154813703321Medical law and ethics3408750UNINA
