Full Description
This book proposes a theory of liability for negligent clinical risk management (CRM) that considers the theoretical, doctrinal and practical realities of medical negligence law in the United States and Germany. Taking both a comparative and interdisciplinary approach, it explores the interaction between law, economics, organisational science, risk, and medicine. In so doing, it articulates a framework for tort liability based on negligent CRM.
