Alasdair Maclean analyses the ethical basis for consent to medical
treatment, providing both an extensive reconsideration of the
ethical issues and a detailed examination of English law.
Importantly, the analysis is given a context by situating consent
at the centre of the healthcare professional-patient relationship.
This allows the development of a relational model that balances the
agency of the two parties with their obligations that arise from
that relationship. That relational model is then used to critique
the current legal regulation of consent. To conclude, Alasdair
Maclean considers the future development of the law and contrasts
the model of relational consent with Neil Manson and Onora
O'Neill's recent proposal for a model of genuine consent.
