- This monograph-length work offers a significant, detailed account of advance healthcare decision-making in a comparative context, presenting an in-depth investigation of the approaches towards advance decision-making from primary sources, statutory instruments, Hansard/Parliamentary reports, and cases. The critical insights presented in the study were generated through the collection and analysis of a large body of material covering four jurisdictions, each with a distinct legal system and societal representations. It engages with predominant theoretical ideology in bioethics and contributes to a new conceptual framework in relation to the theory of autonomy situated within the broader socio-legal contexts of the selected jurisdictions.
