"Advances in medical and dental practice have meant that far more is now possible in terms of the treatment of patients, with the result that there has been a marked rise in expectations. When those hopes are not fulfilled the prospect of litigation arises. For many lawyers such litigation, because of the extent and complexity of the evidence and the procedures, can seem totally alien. It is primarily for those people that Sheriff Dickson's book is intended.The book will be invaluable to busy legal practitioners and to health-care professionals.Previously a T & T Clarke publication."
