Mujajati and Chirwa On Medical Law and Ethics in Zambia

Along with the clergy and legal professions, the health profession is one of the three noble professions. The profession sits at the most important place in any civilized and healthy nation. It is for this reason that members of this noble profession, like all organized professions, are regulated by ethics and rules of conduct.

The lack of Zambian literature and reading materials on the important field of health profession in Zambia necessitated the writing of this book as a ground-breaking reference material to spark the interest in the field which has somewhat been ignored. The mushrooming of teaching institutions that are establishing health-related courses calls for literature and reference material that can enlighten the health practitioner, student and members of the public on the various obligations that each has.

This book has been recommended for practitioners, students and members of the public.
