Editorial Reviews

Review
"This is an excellent book providing factual information and stimulating further thought and discussion." "3rd Year Medics," Rectum - University of Leeds Medical Magazine, January 2003
A14.99 the book is excellent value and few practitioners would not find it both informative and enlightening. I recommend it both as an overview, but also a useful first reference resource. For occasions when more depth is needed there are references to more detailed texts at the end of each chapter and a section on web resources." "M W Elliott, St James's University Hospital, Leeds," Hospital Medicine, July 2003
first class introduction into an increasingly important aspect of medical care" "Highly Commended in the Basis of Medicine category at the 2003 BMA Awards," November 2003

Medical Ethics and Law: The Core Curriculum4
An excellent book. I used it for all my medical finals. Clearly written and focussed on key issues. I particularly liked the summary boxes which cover the main facts.

One concern is that this book is now 3 years old and some of the key ethical and legal issues have been changed. I think an updated version would be most useful.
