| Whakarāpopototanga: | "Truth, Trust and Medicine investigates the notion of trust and honesty in medicine, and questions whether honesty and openness are of equal importance in maintaining the trust necessary in doctor-patient relationships. Jackson begins with the premise that those in the medical profession have a basic duty to be worthy of the trust their patients place in them.

This book boldly addresses these questions which disturb our very modern notions of a patient's autonomy, self-determination and informed consent."--Publisher description. |
