Advance Directives Across Asia, A Comparative Socio-legal Analysis, Daisy Cheung,Micheal Dunn, Editör, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge (MA), USA , Massachusetts, ss.207-221, 2023
ADVANCE DIRECTIVES ACROSS ASIA
This book is the first to consider comprehensively and systematically the
law and practice of advance directives across Asia. It will thus be important not only as a reference volume that documents how advance directives
are regulated and used throughout Asia, but also as an exploration of the
concept of the advance directive itself, in context. By examining how
advance directives operate in Asian countries, we will also shed light on
the principle of personal autonomy in this context, alongside other values
and religious and socio-cultural factors that shape health and care decision-making. As such, this book will have broad appeal not only to Asian
scholars, students, policymakers and practitioners in the fields of health
law and ethics and end-of-life care more generally, but will also be of
wider interest to an international academic audience in the fields of law,
ethics and health and social care research. This title is also available as
open access on Cambridge Core.
