Abstract
Rogue surgeons, overburdened hospitals, medical mismanagement, doctor shortages. The story of AustraliaiÌs own 'Dr Death', Jayant Patel, is symptomatic of a tidal wave heading towards all modern healthcare systems. In this absorbing book, the authors have ploughed through the mass of public inquiry data, interviewing key figures to reveal in gripping detail how it happened, who was to blame, and how it can be avoided. This is a story for all who are a part of a modern complex healthcare network, from hospital administrators to doctors, nurses, ancillary staff and patients themselves
