内容説明

Based on contributions from all Member States of the European Region of the World Health Organization, this work on patients' rights offers for each country a point of reference to the situation towards the end of the 20th century. It also provides a basis for comparison and possibly for harmonization of measures between countries, which would considerably facilitate the process of health and social legislation in a future enlarged Europe. This book should be of value to a range of people because it goes beyond a mere account of the large number of laws surveyed in the study. The authors highlight, analyze and discuss the response of the legislator to the many and varied problems raised by the issue of the rights of patients in Europe.
