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. 410 0$aAlways learning. 606 $aMedical laws and legislation$zEngland$vTextbooks 615 0$aMedical laws and legislation 676 $a344.42041 700 $aBell$b Leanne$01374934 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154813703321 996 $aMedical law and ethics$93408750 997 $aUNINA
