Review
I found this book an excellent guide ... The glossary of legal terms was invaluable and the sources of legal references most useful so that one can look up the cases needed. Overall, a very well written and presented book that almost anyone could pick up and understand. (Amazon customer review, Mar 01 )
4 Stars: Excellent current overview
Very punchy and concise summary of current case and statute law for doctors. References and key cases and statutes are good. (Amazon customer review, Mar 01 )
Although very concise, the amount of information is adequate to meet the aims of the book, and useful lists of further reading are included in each chapter ... This is an easy-to-read guide to the common areas of law with which doctors come into contact ... a helpful revision aid for those doctors who undergo a further qualification in medical law. (British Journal of Hospital Medicine )
This book is a gem. It should be read by every doctor regardless of speciality. It also should be available in every hospital department and in all health centres. The reviewer wishes that it had been available twenty years ago! (The Ulster Medical Journal )
For anyone seeking basic information on the medicolegal aspects of day-to-day medicine, this is a book to go for.
(Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine )For its size, the book manages to cover quite considerable detail. It provides footnote references to leading cases with two line summaries that give a flavour of the case to those frustrated by the legal jargon and the mysteries of the procedure going on around them, it should provide some of the explanation, if not justification, for the system they are expected to step in and out of.
