Nick Woodman nnwoodman — BOOK REVIEW PRINCIPLES OF MEDICAL LAW 3rd Edition Editors: Andrew Grubb. Judith Laing, Jean McHale Consultant Editor: Professor Sir Ian Kennedy Oxford University Press ISBN: 978-0-19-954440-0 www.oup.com MEDICAL LAW: A CHANGING LANDSCAPE AT A CONTROVERSIAL TIME An appreciation by Phillip Taylor MBE and Elizabeth Taylor of Richmond Green Chambers Since the last edition of ‘Principles of Medical Law’ was published six years ago, any number of changes in the healthcare landscape have emerged and with them, changes in the law, notably in reforming legislation, such as the Mental Health Act which reached the statute books in 2007. Also, much has been accomplished, for example, in the fields of assisted reproduction, and the use and regulation of human material such as human organs and tissue. Legal issues arising from healthcare as a profession, the structure of the NHS and the evolving regulatory environments which impact on it are also dealt with as the controversies rage. The book is the result of team efforts by at least 20 expert contributors. As the editors acknowledge, ‘the depth of expertise that this volume has demonstrated in the past has been retained, whilst the changes that [have been] introduced reflect the evolving nature of this dynamic discipline’. In over 1,200 pages with 22 chapters and two short appendices, usefully and punctiliously annotated and footnoted where appropriate, this heavy volume is logically organized into seven parts, covering areas such as: The Organization of Health Care … Regulating Health Care Professions… Duties of Contract and Tort and Breach of Duty… Consent to Treatment…Test for Capacity… Mental Health law… Clinical Research… Medically Assisted reproduction… the Regulation of Medicinal Products… and Medical Devices Patenting and the Human Body -- and more besides. Of great interest is Part Seven of the book which deals with the many fraught and vexed legal issues surrounding the ending of life, as well as the finality of death itself and how we might review this area of law in the future. It’s an authoritative, detailed and scholarly work of reference which should be considered an essential purchase for any practitioner involved in any aspect of the law pertaining to healthcare. As one would expect of a work of this stature and erudition, there are over a hundred pages of tables of cases, legislation, statutory instruments and treaties and conventions, as well as a table of European Law and a table of Legislation from other jurisdictions. A useful and lengthy index facilitates further research for a work which is aimed at such a wide readership. The law is stated as at May 2010, plus further relevant changes added at proof stage to assist in what is such a changing landscape at such a difficult time.
