Breast Cancer: A Guide for Every Woman

This book, written by two leading medical experts and a medical journalist, gives full and up-to-date information about all aspects of breast cancer. Intended as a guide for all women, it will be particularly useful for those who have been diagnosed with, or are at risk for breast cancer. It explains in non-technical language early symptoms, tests, and treatment options, and how to cope with the disease and its treatment. The authors of Breast Cancer explain all these different aspects of the disease clearly and with minimal use of jargon, while still providing all the detailed information about diagnosis, treatment, and care afterwards. They also explain what is now known about he causes of breast cancer - what factors put one at greater risk of developing breast cancer and what factors make it less likely that one will ever develop it.

Are pregnant women entitled to the same rights of self-determination and bodily integrity as other adults? This is the fundamental question underlying recent high-profile legal interventions in situations when pregnant women and healthcare staff do not agree on management options or appropriate behaviour. Courts on both sides of the Atlantic have sometimes answered that they are not, and the law has at times been manipulated to enforce compliance with medical recommendations. This is the first book of its kind to offer a comprehensive assessment of healthcare law as applied to the unique situation of pregnancy. Drawing on case material from both the UK and the USA, it describes the trend towards 'policing pregnancy' and explores the emergence of the concept of 'maternal-foetal conflict' - and why, in the author's view, this would be more appropriately labelled 'obstetric conflict'. Suggestions are made for alternative approaches that better safeguard the overall well-being of pregnant women and their future children.
