Zusatztext 'Dr Bennett offers a careful picture of the 'kaleidoscope' of complex and shifting norms which make up contemporary health law. Her breadth of vision and depth of critical insight will make this book required reading for anyone with an interest in how health care law must adapt in the face of rapidly developing scientific knowledge and the pressures and possibilities of globalisation.' Sally Sheldon! University of Kent! UK 'This book is a real gem...a beautifully polished [and] highly readable text.' Australian Journal of Primary Health 'Bennett has emerged as one of our important current voices on these fundamental issues. She writes clearly! reflectively and analytically! utilising case examples not for emotive objectives but to illustrate both the complexities of issues and the need for nuanced and flexible solutions. Her voice is one of calm and thoughtfulness in an area which too often is characterised by kneejerk reactions to issues of deep concern to us as a species...Health Law's Kaleidoscope is a constructive and thought-provoking contribution.' Journal of Law and Medicine '...this book is an informative and well-researched contribution to the literature on law! ethics and medicine. It deserves a wide readership and will appeal to scholars and students interested in the applications of feminist theory! comparative medical law and the international dimensions of health policy.'
