From cosmetic surgery to euthanasia, Daniel Sokol offers a unique insight into the world of medical ethics. Drawing on his experience as a leading medical ethicist and barrister, and years of front-line experience in hospitals, Daniel sheds a light on the ethical complexities of modern medicine and guides us towards a better understanding of morality. When is it acceptable to restrain patients? Should doctors always tell patients the truth? When should life-sustaining treatment be stopped? What makes life worth living? Whichever end of the stethoscope you stand, Daniel's book will change the way you think about medicine.

Reviews :
"Sokol won't just change the way you think about medicine, but also morality. A unique fusion of wit and wisdom." - Adam Kay, best-selling author of This is Going to Hurt. "A wonderfully lucid account, full of quiet common sense. All doctors would benefit from reading this book." - Henry Marsh, neurosurgeon and best-selling author of Do No Harm.

Daniel Sokol lives in Hammersmith, London. He obtained his PhD from Imperial College in 2003 and, after some years as a university lecturer, trained as a barrister specialising in clinical negligence. Daniel is an award-winning columnist for the British Medical Journal and has sat on various committees, including those of the Ministry of Defence, the Ministry of Justice and the Royal College of Surgeons.
