A basic knowledge of the legal framework in which healthcare is, and the role that law and the judiciary play in the working lives of all professionals has become an intrinsic part in the training of students of medicine, nursing, pharmacy and the allied professions. This is partly due to the increasing frequency and controversy of items of medicolegal significance in the media, and partly due to the wide and freely available range of specialist medical information available to the public against which to judge medical treatment. This book looks at those areas where law and medicine commonly meet. The chapters are written by a multidisciplinary group of practitioners with special interest or experience in their subjects. A vast number of subjects are covered; from controversial issues such as euthanasia to issues such as confidentiality, all of which will be interest to students of medicine and healthcare providers alike.
The book describes the author's early years and his gradual descent to the bottom of the job market which encouraged him to join the Royal Navy to try to improve his career prospects. It covers his time as Vice Consul at the British High Commission in Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) between 1991 and 1994 and describes some of the interesting Consular and Visa cases which he had to deal with. It also describes his love affair with the daughter of a Headhunter's daughter and his visits to her Longhouse deep in the interior of East Malaysia on the island of Borneo close to the Indonesian border.
