This volume charts the rise of the concept of "inclusive
development" and simultaneously recognizes its problematic
implications as it shifts the focus of development work from
efficiency to justice. In response to increasing awareness that
development projects can all too often lead to the exclusion of
marginalized populations, Considering Inclusive Development across
Global Educational Contexts sets out to foreground trends and
experiences that can inform socially just approaches to
development. Structured in three parts, the volume explores several
educational themes - aid and development, the human-environment
nexus, and economic redistribution. Chapters look in detail at how
approaches in these areas can help or hinder inclusive educational
development globally, and highlight representative, critical, and
relational models of inclusive development that can more strongly
inform education by/from broader development trends. This timely
volume will be of interest to academics, researchers, and
post-graduate students in the fields of education development,
inclusivity, and sustainable development. This book would also
benefit graduate students and scholars in development education.

This leading textbook places medical decision-making in its legal
context and provides practical guidance on the most ethically
challenging cases that face the courts. It explains how the Mental
Capacity Act works in practice and how the courts and lawyers
wrestle with and resolve problems relating to the very essence of
life: what is life? what is an acceptable quality of life? what
treatment is so burdensome that it should not be attempted? These
questions are posed, not in the abstract but, in real - often
desperate, often urgent - situations. This is the essential guide
for solicitors, barristers and judges specialising in Court of
Protection work, clinical negligence, personal injury and human
rights. Postgraduate medical ethics students and academics, NHS
bodies and local authority professionals, health professionals and
administrators in the NHS and private practice and those in
Commonwealth countries with an interest in these topics will also
find this book an invaluable resource. Medical Treatment: Decisions
and the Law offers a readily accessible text for those dealing with
the provision of medical treatment to those without capacity and
related areas, providing a clear description of procedure as well
as practical application of the law. Key developments for the
Fourth Edition include: * The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on
decision making in the Court of Protection, particularly in
relation to end of life decisions and vaccination * New chapters on
two controversial issues: "the Right to Die?" and "Access to
Healthcare: Choice" * Expanded chapter on Decisions for Children,
covering recent high-profile cases such as Re Gard where continued
provision of life sustaining treatment for babies or very young
infants was at issue, and addressing the difficult issues around
decision making by 16 to 17 year olds * Substantially updated
chapter on Going to Court, covering how the incapacitous patient
can be supported to participate in decisions about their treatment
Discussion of "Escalation of Care" covering matters including NICE
guidelines and care pathways and expanded coverage of issues
concerning the funding of treatment.
