About This Book

It compiles and explains legal principles and reported cases about relations between medical practitioners and the law, presented as a practical primer rather than an exhaustive treatise. Topics include civil and criminal liabilities, standards of care and negligence, consent and malpractice, the admissibility and role of medical testimony, coroners’ procedures, and the regulation of dentists and druggists. Organized around judicial citations and condensed commentary, it is intended to help physicians and lawyers address routine medico-legal questions and clarify evidentiary and procedural obligations.
