The Law of Bioethics: Individual Autonomy and Social Regulation (American Casebook Series)

This casebook provides a contextual account of developing law by drawing on patients' accounts of their illnesses, doctors' reports of their encounters with patients, ethicists' reflections on our duties to ourselves and those around us, researchers? findings on how medical decisions are made, the results those decisions produce, and the impact of various forms of legal regulation. It offers a wide range of practical, skill-building problems with larger conceptual issues about how law works and American culture functions.Marsha Garrison is the author of 'The Law of Bioethics: Individual Autonomy and Social Regulation (American Casebook Series)', published 2002 under ISBN 9780314252210 and ISBN 0314252215.
