PATERNALISTIC MEDICAL JUDGES. Dr. Dexter Reno Johnson, Professor of Law, Commonwealth Scholar and Medicolegal consultant questions the reluctance of the law to accept the new young person. Why is the court reluctant to confer competence on young persons in critical medical decision making? Today's young person must be considered more advanced than those of yesteryear. Can Judges design appropriate assessment in law of the competence of a Young person to make a tough medical decision? In this work, Dr. Johnson argues that overly paternalistic judges are applying anachronistic law, out of step with current concepts of today's young person. This book discusses the way forward as regards medical decision making for young persons in this twenty-first century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dexter Johnson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3639221761\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783639221763\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e VDM Verlag\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/21\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.27d","brand":"Dexter Johnson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440362893567,"sku":"9783639221763","price":52.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3312f87f-b439-4a3d-9d36-c4042c82e11f.jpg?v=1777181951","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/young-persons-v-paternalistic-medical-dexter-johnson-9783639221763","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
