Publisher's Synopsis
Health is becoming an increasingly important subject in the European Union. The EU Court of Justice has also been involved in many health-related issues. This casebook on EU health law offers practitioners and students an opportunity to discover and understand the Court of Justice's case law through highlights from health-related decisions. The casebook presents a range of carefully edited extracts that clearly illustrate the essence and reasoning behind each decision. Compiled to be used in conjunction with European Union Health Law: Treaties and Legislation (Maklu Publishers - 2012), this book covers an important part of the graduate European health law course in a series of structured chapters dealing with human rights and health, public health, patient safety/consumer protection, safety and health at work, patient mobility, professional mobility, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, privacy and data protection, insurance, competition, and public procurement. The book will be indispensable for practitioners and students of health law and policy. [Subject: EU Law, Health Law]
