ReviewsAdvance praise: 'This book provides a thoughtful and insightful engagement with the subject of medical law. In encouraging readers to think thematically across different substantive areas, the authors have succeeded in not only illuminating some of the most crucial ethical debates for this area of legal regulation, but of telling the story of the development of medical law and of highlighting the difficulty of the decisions that have to be reached. The book's conversational style is sure to provoke further interesting debate amongst its readership.' Julie McCandless, London School of Economics and Political Science, "A splendid text: clear, accessible, penetrating, thoughtful, well pitched for undergraduate students, yet useful and thought-provoking for more advanced readers. [An] unusually sophisticated treatment of the complex interplay of law and ethics. So far as the law is concerned, [it is] rigorously scholarly but always practical and down to earth. It's excitingly different from other books. I will be recommending it to students here in Oxford." Charles Foster, University of Oxford
