Legal Aspects of Consent, 2nd Edition
Quay books, July 2009, Pages: 330
Since 2002, when the first edition of this book was published, there have been significant changes in the law relating to consent. The most important is the enactment and implementation of the Mental Capacity Act 2005, which provided a statutory framework for decision making on behalf of those adults lacking the requisite mental capacity to make specific decisions. This Act, along with other statutory changes, decided cases and new guidance from the DH and professional bodies, has led to major amendments to the first edition.
It is hoped that this new edition will continue to provide a useful foundation on which health professionals can build their understanding of the laws relating to consent.
