The Clinic and the Court : Law, Medicine and Anthropology Hardback
Edited by Ian (University of Edinburgh) Harper, Tobias (University of Edinburgh) Kelly, Akshay (University of Sussex) Khanna
Part of the Cambridge Studies in Law and Society series
Hardback
Description
Law and medicine can be caught in a tight embrace. They both play a central role in the politics of harm, making decisions regarding what counts as injury and what might be the most suitable forms of redress or remedy.
But where do law and medicine converge and diverge in their responses to and understandings of harm and suffering?
Using empirical case studies from Europe, the Americas and Africa, The Clinic and the Court brings together leading medical and legal anthropologists to explore this question.
