Exploring the patterns in the rich tapestry of medical law, this
text is the most up-to-date work of its kind. After an introduction
to bio-ethical principles, Australian Medical Law discusses the
interplay of different areas of law as they impact on medical
practice. The text considers the impact of contract, crime and tort
law. Particular attention is given to competency and the thorny
issue of consent to treatment. Other areas canvassed include
confidentiality, access to medical records, complaints and
transplants. The latest case law is included, as well as commentary
on the Civil Liability Act.
Clearly expressed and accessible, this text is relevant to all
students and practitioners involved in the burgeoning field of
medical law.
