In a review of the book " Medical law and ethics " by Jonathan Herring, I made it my goal to familiarize the reader with the issues of medical law and ethics, which author discuss in his work . The book should be a valuable source of knowledge for both, experts and laymen, because the author dealt with many topics from different angles, that raise a number of legal and ethical issues (the issue of euthanasia , research on humans , cloning , sterilization , etc. .). I focus on these topics in eleven chapters of my review and I also add my comment , as well as comments of other authors and case law. and Mgr. Pavel Doubek
