  • Genes and Insuranceby Marcus Radetzki; Marian Radetzki; Niklas Juth; Alexander McCall-Smith

    Cambridge University Press 2003; US$ 35.00

    The genetic information that is available to insurance companies has often been regulated to avoid certain ethical difficulties.

  • The Damages Lotteryby Patrick Atiyah

    Hart 1997; US$ 86.40

    A man slips on a dance floor and breaks his leg. He recovers damages. A child has both legs amputated as a result of meningitis and is awarded nothing. The law's justification for awarding damages in the first case is that the man's injury was the fault of someone else, while in the second case damages are denied because nobody was at fault. In this searching critique of the present law and practice relating to damages, Professor Patrick Atiyah shows that this system is in fact a lottery. He contends that the public are paying far too much for an unfair and inefficient insurance system and that reform is long overdue. His conclusion is that actions for damages for injuries should be abolished and replaced with a new no-fault road accident... more...

    University of Chicago Press 2008; US$ 14.00

    American health care is in crisis because of exploding medical malpractice litigation. Insurance premiums for doctors and malpractice lawsuits are skyrocketing, rendering doctors both afraid and unable to afford to continue to practice medicine. Undeserving victims sue at the drop of a hat, egged on by greedy lawyers, and receive eye-popping awards that insurance companies, hospitals, and doctors themselves struggle to pay. The plaintiffs and lawyers always win; doctors, and the nonlitigious, always lose; and affordable health care is the real victim. This, according to Tom Baker, is the myth of medical malpractice, and as a reality check he offers The Medical Malpractice Myth , a stunning dismantling of this familiar, but inaccurate,... more...
