"This is another book in the excellent PasTest series, which is becoming a
rapidly expanding stable of dentistry-related paperbacks. This title
concentrates on the rather more arid (as opposed to wet-fingered) areas of
ethics and law...
...The book is aimed at a broad spectrum of readers, including
undergraduates, practising dentists and the full range of Dental Care
Professionals (DCPs). Not surprisingly this PasTest imprint begins by
explaining how to study dental ethics, law and professionalism to pass
examinations and suggests a useful mnemonic - PROFESSIONAL - which starts with
'P' for practise and ends with 'L' for learn.
Very much a book of practical skills, it continues with chapters on how to
teach and how to assess dental ethics and continues with ethical principles and
practice. There are also chapters devoted to the ethics of teamworking and
professionalism in practice."

'A book every dental professional should have on their shelf! It is
comprehensive and concise keeping the reader up-to-date with current ethical and
legal guidelines and useful contact details of dental organisations. It also
contains relevant case scenarios for reference and practice. An excellent and
informative read!'
