4.0 out of 5 stars
The empirical research that tort law needs,
By W H van Boom (Tilburg University, the Netherlands) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Measure of Malpractice: Medical Injury, Malpractice Litigation, and Patient Compensation (Hardcover)
For me as a European law professor this - admittedly somewhat outdated book - was very helpful in many respects: it showed me how thorough research on the tort process and its shortcomings is performed and it also convinced me that medical malpractice is quite different from say automobile accidents as far as the role of tort law is concerned. I think that this is a good book to read for anyone studying the tort process and evaluating the arguments for and against alternative patient insurance arrangements. I was a bit disappointed by the final chapter ('Ruminations for the future'), because the policy statements and suggestions for reform in that chapter are in my opinion not really firmly backed by the empirical evidence of the previous chapters.
