Recenzii

'Overall, I am full of praise for Health Law. It is an agenda-setting work … The work is a tour de force in successfully sustaining a clear and compelling narrative structure, a tightly coherent critical approach, and a strong application of the points of theory to points of regulation and practice … Chapters 1 through 5 provide outstanding foundational materials for courses on health and law anywhere, and should feature on reading lists across our curricula. More generally, the book will serve more innovative programmes in health and law. For undergraduate and postgraduate taught students, I could not recommend it more highly. As indicated, I also would recommend it to researchers in other disciplines, and colleagues outside of academia if they really want to understand what health law is about. Health Law is, quite simply, an excellent textbook.' John Coggon, Centre for Health, Law, and Society, University of Bristol Law School
