This guide aims to make the law accessible to doctors and nurses by using everyday examples to clarify how the law works. The authors recognize that potential legal problems can be avoided with a knowledge of the law and so provide a general, working account of appropriate areas of the law. Court procedures and the structure of the legal profession are explained. Dr Cole has a special interest in medical ethics and child abuse. J.H.Tingle has practised as a barrister for several years and has lectured throughout the UK on medical law.
