Description
This is a short textbook of ethics and law aimed primarily at medical students. The book is in two sections. The first considers general
aspects of ethics (in the context of medicine); the second section covers the topics identified in the ‘consensus agreement’. The content
of medical law is not intended to be comprehensive and relates very much to the ethical issues.
