About This Item
U.S.A.: Oxford University Press, 1996. Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. 1st. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Near fine coy in a like dust jacket.306pp including index.The growth of complementary medicine over the past decade has been accompanied by calls for greater regulation and for the most part it has been assumed that the regulation of orthodox medicine offers a suitable model for complementary medicine. The result has been confusion over the purpose and effects of regulation and the obscuring of critical issues which derserve far greater public exposure. This book unravels the debates and analyses the benefits and drawbacks of regulation in this area. The book has two aims. First of all it examines in some detail the way in which the law presently affects the practice of complementary medicine. The second aim is to examine all the arguments for and against greater regulation of complementary medicine. In fulfilling the second aim it challenges the notion that the legal and regulatory mechanisms which govern orthodox medicine constitute an appropriate model for the regulation of most complementary therapies..
