Based on a successful series of articles on death published in the British Journal of Nursing, this book is written in a practical and easy to follow style. It covers topics such as:
-How a body should be laid out
-Different religious practices
-Laws relating to resuscitation
-The coroner's court
-Intended changes following the Shipman Report
Each chapter uses a situation to illustrate the relevant laws so that the law can be explained in a practical jargon-free way.
