  Dental litigation is on the increase, as it is in other specialist areas of medical practice, and this is the only book which deals with the subject in the context of the UK legal system. It also takes account of the situation that applies in the Republic of Ireland, in other EC countries and in Australia and Hong Kong. The book sets out to provide dental practitioners and students with a thorough overview of the legislation and case law affecting their professional work, and it should also be of help to any lawyer involved in a medical negligence case involving a dentist. The book's authors are, respectively, the past and present Dental Secretaries of the Medical Protection Society.
