Description
The Medico-Legal series aims to reflect the changes brought about by medical developments and the reorganization of health care provision. Each book includes both practical and academic perspectives, providing an account of the problems and changes that have occurred, and indicating possible pitfalls and future developments. The books also put special emphasis on understanding the law in its proper context, and on using interdisciplinary expertise to solve problems. Practitioners in many professions come into daily contact with the dying and the dead. Often questions arise as to the legal issues in a particular set of circumstances. This book is intended to be a practical guide to the relevant law for both lawyers and those involved in the care of the dying and in the disposal of the dead.
