Written by a doctor and a lawyer, both with many years of practical experience, this book provides a unique and in-depth coverage of the most important ethical and moral issues (and their legal implications) facing healthcare professionals, lawyers and the general public alike. It represents a useful outline of where medicine and the law stand at present and hints at where they will be going in relation to each other in the coming years.Legal & Ethical Aspects of HealthcareMedical careGreat BritainPatientsCivil rightsGreat BritainPatientsLegal status, laws, etcGreat BritainMedical carePatientsCivil rightsPatientsLegal status, laws, etc.344.73041McLean S.
