Choice, Equality, and the Limits of Neutrality

Selecting against Disability in the Liberal State

A bottom-up investigation of the broken system of professional licensing, affecting everyone from hairdressers and morticians to doctors, lawyers, real estate agents, and those who rely on their services. Millions of Americans are required to have a license to do their jobs, giving the boards responsible for licensure enormous power. In theory, licensing boards maintain standards of hygiene, skill, and ethics, but their decisions can be maddeningly arbitrary, creating unnecessary barriers to work. And where boards could actually curb harms and ensure professionalism, their performance is disappointing. When Rebecca Haw Allensworth began attending board meetings, she discovered a thicket of self-dealing and ineptitude. The Licensing Racket goes behind the scenes to show how boards protect insiders from competition and bad actors from discipline. Even where there is the will to investigate complaints, boards lack the resources to do so. Consequences range from the banal--a hairdresser prevented from working--to the shocking, with medical licensing boards bearing considerable blame for the opioid crisis and for staffing shortages during COVID. Unethical lawyers, meanwhile, are rarely stripped of licenses. If licensing is a pointless obstacle to employment in many arenas, in others it is as important as it is ineffective. Allensworth argues for abolition where appropriate and outlines an agenda for reform where it is most needed.

Oxford Medical Handbooks

The Oxford Handbook for the Foundation Programme returns in a new edition, guiding medical students and newly-qualified doctors through the Foundation Programme and beyond with the most up-to-date information and clinical guidance. This new edition has been fully revised to reflect the latest clinical guidelines, as well as changes to career structures and the Foundation Programme curriculum. It includes two entirely new chapters on primary care and care at the end of life, as well as featuring updated content on healthcare-related infection control, obstetrics and gynaecology, and surgery. Distilling the expertise of two senior clinicians and the first-hand experience of two new junior authors, this pocket handbook provides guidance on all facets of starting out as a newly qualified doctor, from applying to the Foundation Programme to career progression and choosing a specialty, from interpreting results to performing practical procedures. Covering aspects that are rarely tackled in medical school, this is your ultimate survival guide.

Regulation that fails to guarantee the optimal protection of patients and scientific research in favour of other interests commits foreseeable and avoidable "regulatory violence". This book explains how science could help us address healthcare issues in greater solidarity. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

The Global Dynamics of Regulatory Experimentation in Biomedicine and Health

Regulatory Violence

Surrogacy is a rapidly evolving global phenomenon that raises profound legal, ethical, and social questions. This book offers a pioneering Rights-Based Pyramid Approach, balancing adults' rights through liberty, equality, and vulnerability, to secure the best interests of children at the centre. Drawing on extensive empirical research in Sri Lanka, alongside comparative analysis of India and the UK, it provides a uniquely context-sensitive perspective on how surrogacy laws can and should respond to real-world challenges. A distinctive feature of this book is its examination of how one country's laws impact surrogacy both within and beyond national borders, shaping practices, markets, and policy responses across regions. Written in clear, accessible language, the book bridges academic and practical debates, making it essential reading for students, researchers, and professionals in law, bioethics, gender studies, social policy, sociology, psychology, and public health, as well as policymakers and practitioners seeking a comprehensive yet practical guide.

Insights from Sri Lanka, India, and the UK

A Pyramid Approach to Surrogacy Law

The role of conscience in healthcare decision-making is explored in this important intervention in the fields of Health Law and Ethics, Medicine, Nursing and Philosophy. It takes a broad approach to conscience, looking beyond the standard examples of conscientious objection to argue that conscience permeates healthcare decisions. However, it also shows that not all decisions of conscience are worthy of legal or societal protection and that these are interests to be weighed rather than rights. Instead, conscience should be protected only when the individual exercising conscience abides by specific responsibilities. Additionally, the book explores the important issues of complicity with healthcare decisions and institutional or organisational conscience and argues they play an oversized role in general discussions of conscience. It further claims that we ought to pay much more attention to conscientious provision. The book concludes by looking at ways to more effectively regulate claims of conscience.

The Nature and Limitations of Conscience in Healthcare

This book draws on the disciplines of law, philosophy, and psychiatry to interrogate whether the Mental Capacity Act 2005 meets the challenges posed by mental disorder to decision-making. It is often assumed that to allow space for individuality, any test for capacity must focus only on decision-making processes and not on the substance of the values that underpin decisions. Auckland challenges this assumption, arguing that the current law serves merely as a façade, behind which judgements can be made about the nature of a person's values, free from proper scrutiny. This book provides an in-depth analysis of when and how a person's disordered values should be relevant to the determination of their capacity, offering novel suggestions for reforming the capacity test to better reflect the impact of disorder on decision-making. It also explores the implications of this analysis for people found to lack capacity, concluding that&nbsp;reforms to the best interest provisions are urgently needed. This title is part of the Flip it Open Programme and may also be available Open Access. Check our website Cambridge Core for details.

The Wills Eye Manual: Print + eBook with Multimedia

This unique atlas with over 4000 images opens up new dimensions in slit lamp examination and documentation. In his "life's work", the author shows how the slit lamp can be used to depict almost the entire field of ophthalmology - from the eyelids and anterior segment to the fundus and portrayal of eye motility. This results in the first book in ophthalmology that covers the entire subject with just one device.


Traditional slit lamp examination techniques are combined with the innovative documentation of ophthalmic findings using videography. Access to these videos is provided in the book. They can be viewed via the More Media app.


Innovations:


 Purkinje reflexes functioning as "landmarks" for observing changes in the eye's anterior segment-whether for the early detection of keratoconus or when assessing intraocular lenses

 The creation of fundus overviews, some of which extending to the periphery, using just the slit lamp and image processing programs

 Documentation of objects at a great distance by holding a minus lens in front of the objective lens of the slit lamp to make it less "short-sighted". This is useful to visualize squint or to take a picture of the whole face.





Inside the book:


 Methods section on technology

 Imaging with fundus-, minus- and without additional lenses

 Image documentation with patient-histories of up to 20 years

 780 cases, including 460 follow-ups

Videographic Imaging

Zu den bereits klinisch implementierten reproduktionsmedizinischen Verfahren wie der In-vitro-Fertilisation oder Eizell-Kryokonservierung, die Menschen mit Fertilitätseinschränkungen dabei helfen sollen, Kinder zu bekommen, kommen immer mehr Verfahren hinzu, welche sich zwar noch im experimentellen Stadium befinden, jedoch bereits auf die Möglichkeit der klinischen Anwendung hindeuten. Ein erstes relevantes Verfahren ist die In-vitro-Gametogenese, die Generierung von artifiziellen Gameten. Ein zweites ist die extrakorporale Schwangerschaft, mit der die Hoffnung verbunden ist, schwere Komplikationen oder sogar den Tod bei Frühgeburten zu vermeiden. Diese medizinischen Innovationen können weitreichende rechtliche, gesellschaftliche und ethische Konsequenzen im Kontext der menschlichen Reproduktion nach sich ziehen - diese werden im vorliegenden Sammelband kritisch diskutiert.
