Dealing With Medical Malpractice The British and Swedish Experience

Dealing with Medical Malpracticeasks two interrelated questions: What are medical malpractice systems like in other societies, particularly in "publicly owned" health care systems? What is the relationship between professional autonomy of the medical profession and the characteristics of a society's malpractice system? The author's investigations in England and Sweden resulted in a well-researached and carefully analyzed study of approaches to malpractice in these Western industrialized countries. Rosenthal also provides insight into issues of professional autonomy in a system in which physicians are employees of a state health care system.Rosenthal, Marilynn M. is the author of 'Dealing With Medical Malpractice The British and Swedish Experience' with ISBN 9780822308300 and ISBN 0822308304.
