From cosmetic surgery to euthanasia, Daniel Sokol offers a unique insight into the world of medical ethics.
Drawing on his experience as a leading medical ethicist and barrister, and years of front-line experience in hospitals, Daniel sheds a light on the ethical complexities of modern medicine and guides us towards a better understanding of morality.
