Health Law in Australia is the first book to deal with health law on a comprehensive national basis. In a field of law that is becoming increasingly important, where the demand for expertise is rapidly expanding, Health Law in Australia examines the law in detail in all Australian jurisdictions. By covering all the major areas in this diverse field of law, Health Law in Australia delivers increased understanding of the discipline as a whole. The book deals with the general principles of health law in detail, including chapters on "Medical Negligence"; "Children and Consent", and "Confidentiality and Privacy". It then goes on to consider beginning-of-life and end-of-life issues, concluding with chapters on select emerging health law areas, such as biotechnology, mental health law and organ and tissue donation. The contributing authors include national leaders in the field, therefore exposing readers to the results of research already being conducted by specialists and creating a higher level of expertise that would not otherwise be possible across the wide range of topics. A logical, structured approach is adopted within each chapter to ensure consistency throughout the book. Health Law in Australia has been written for those with a legal background and is essential reading for undergraduate law students, postgraduate law students, researchers and scholars in the disciplines of law, health and medicine, as well as legal practitioners, government departments and bodies in the health area, and private health providers.

In the twenty-first century, complex health care problems have remained unsolved. Conflicts between public interests and individual rights, evolving public health crises in low income countries, the challenge of regulating health professionals, and the effects of globalisation on health (care systems) dominate the contemporary debates in this field. In a way, these problems expose the (regulatory) weaknesses of health systems responding to these questions. Facing these problems, health lawyers and policy makers should - more than in the past - focus on underlying normative values in health care. Core values include solidarity and justice in health care access. International Health Law explores the underlying normative values of health systems from a global and local perspective. Apart from examining country experiences, the authors provide an interesting and valuable contribution to the (inter)national legal and health policy debate on guaranteeing equal access to health care facilities, resisting a market or consumer-driven movement. By explaining health systems in terms of access, solidarity and justice, International Health Law could contribute strengthening health systems, including equal access. Book jacket.

This book replaces the successful Controversies in Health Law. Under the same editorship and much the same authorship, it is substantially larger (30 chapters instead of 18) and correspondingly more comprehensive. It retains the lively analysis and the focus on controversial and cutting-edge problems. The chapters are broken up into parts covering Litigation and Liabilty; Reproductive Technologies; The Sequelae of the End of Life; Public Health; Ethical Frameworks and Dilemmas; Regulation; Human Rights and Therapeutic Jurisprudence; Research and Vulnerability and Information, Privacy and Confidentiality . They consider issues raised by new technologies, changing legislation and altering community expectations; by new regulatory processes for medicine and all of the health professions; by the fundamental changes to civil liability for medical negligence; by the fierce debate over the role of coroners. Disputes and Dilemmas in Health Law covers questions on property in human tissue and on the ethical and legal aspects of the genetics revolution; provides a modern take on "old" issues such as reproductive law; takes account of changes relating to expert evidence; and discusses how difficult cases in relation to psychiatric injury and wrongful life are pushing compensability to its edges.

"This book identifies the scope of Australian public health law and charts a course for its future evolution. In 26 chapters, written by leading scholars, this innovative collection analyses the role of law in supporting health and safety for the community. It considers the historical, constitutional and global foundations of public health law, as well as the role of consumer protection law in protecting public health. Chapters explore the intersections between public health law, rights and ethics, analysing the role of human rights law for Indigenous health equity, access to medicines, public health dimensions of mental health law, and genomics and public health law. The book analyses the legal and regulatory frameworks for infectious diseases control, the role of law in preparing for and responding to pandemics, vaccination laws, and the regulation of sex work. Increasingly, public health law has an important role in addressing non-communicable diseases and chapters analyse the regulation of alcohol, food, tobacco, and illicit drugs. The expanding scope of contemporary public health law is also illustrated through consideration of public health aspects of workplace health and safety law, environmental law, natural disasters, the relevance of coronial investigations for developments in public health law, and the rights and needs of specific groups, including children and older persons." -- Back cover.
