Foreword
The huge tree of knowledge is flourishing increasingly, and new branches are added to it every day. Some of these branches are connected to each other to shape interdisciplinary sciences that the link between Law and different industries including health care industry is the most important ones.Furthermore, factors such as the new phenomenon of globalization, increase international commercial relationships, facilitation and increase international travels, common global problems in environmental issues, spread of transmissible diseases and requiring unified global suggestions, criterions and standards have made this link stronger.
“Health law” is an interdisciplinary field which has been separated from main body of medical law during recent decades. It is more extensive and comprehensive than medical law and includes issues such as new environmental, economic and health challenges, it should be considered as a gigantic child of medical law. Health law is more extensive than medical law. in moreover, the physician is out of focus and is not solely addressed in acts and regulations and a group of professionals named as health care professionals including dentists, nurses, radiologists, surgeons. have liabilities for caring patients’ health and must consider professional standards in order to prevent negligence and malpractice.
In this research work, health law is categorized based on four approaches including Right to Health; public and population dimensions (public health law) ethical issues (bioethics), individual dimensions with focus on liability (health care law), although, some sources have considered health law synonymous to health care law and also have presented an amalgam of these areas in a unified format named as health care law.
In this collection, health law, ha been prepared in four respective chapters under the titles of health law; human rights and health law, public health law, bioethics and health care law, considering the table of the contents and titles of hundreds of valid books and articles in this area. Health care law has a particular legal position as an approach based on individual rights and professionals’ liabilities and meanwhile is originated from macro policies of public health law. Bioethics as the ethical dimention of health law is investigated in the last chapter. Legal and ethical issues and challenges are somehow solvable relying on acts and regulations that are appropriate to the conditions of the day and with a glance to every community’s cultural background; so addressing these issues can be helpful for legislators in updating acts and regulations.
Anyway, despite defects caused by human effects, this compilation has done its best to present a definite and well founded framework of health law regarding standards of compilation appropriateness in order to enable the honorable readers to follow their expected issues in the format of chapters, subjects, parts and even sub-parts easily.
Hope that honorable readers help us in making this better in the future editions by their valuable guidelines and provide the context for future success in vital area of health.

Publisher Preface
From the first humans up to now, considering different human rights areas such as fundamental human rights have led to human civilization and development. Meanwhile, the role of health and health law is of great importance. It is not possible to achieve a dynamic, efficient and happy community without health, so the necessity of linkage between these important issues in the format of health law is felt completely.
Health law is a relatively new field that its extensiveness and vital importance is more than medical law and is originated from human fundamental rights (the right to health); considering it and its vital dimensions such as environmental health is mandatory for constant growth and development. Because of this it is seriously followed in developmental scientific plans in national and international social sector by states and international bodies particularly World Health Organization (WHO), in addition to being placed in theoretical framework of law sciences.
Studying health law has several benefits that will guide the community in line with different dimensions of prosperity and will be a great help in citizens’ physical and mental health and safety. This important issue will be possible through presenting information about the developments ways for health national plans, helping research and development, making domestic laws and regulations close to international rules, helping judges to issuing verdicts for such cases and making important and vital decisions related to citizens’ right to health in national and international arena. Therefore, this collection will be helpful for educators, students, scholars, country’s macro politician, legislators and judges in medicine and health area.
All human rights dementions, including social, cultural and economic rights which have been less controversial than civil and political rights for states and people, has always been protected by policies or legal frameworks enforced by regulations in order to realize citizens’ rights.
Dear Dr. Shahriar Eslamitabar having more than 25 years’ experience in teaching and research in public, health and administrative law and being in management positions, has presented a unique collection for all scholars, judges, executive managers, legislators and politicians of this area and particularly students of medicine and law, by compiling this relatively comprehensive collection using several valid international sources.
In addition to increasing awareness of the officials and health practitioners about legal and ethical issues, this collection can provide the ground for scientific enhancement and health law development at the country level. Regarding the national and international importance of health law as a relatively new comprehensive interdisciplinary area and the lack of a unified work that has been compiled and translated from several valid foreign sources by an outstanding expert, requirement of such a work in the country was felt
