Law And Ethics In Medical Practice

This book helps medical students to understand the core aspects of law and ethics and shows how that knowledge is applied to achieve good medical practice. Activities and UK case studies are used to illustrate key principles and apply the law - in the context of medicine - in a simple and accessible way. Reflecting the revised core curriculum for medical ethics and law, the book also contains further reading and links to essential UK policy documents to encourage readers to continue to develop their understanding of law and ethics.
