Omschrijving
'In summary, this is an ambitious and timely book which provides an important theoretical contribution to the ongoing debates on the MCA 2005 [Mental Capacity Act] and the implications of the CRPD [Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities]. It will appeal to lawyers, philosophers, ethicists, and practitioners given its engagement and reflection on both theory and practice.' Beverly Clough, Medical Law Review

'Kong is amongst a small number who combine masterful deftness with both deeply rigorous philosophical analysis and practically engaged, applicable ideas. Her insights speak clearly to multiple disciplines, critiquing and re-explaining the law, and generating considered, justified practical recommendations on the interpretation and development of law … In short, her book is truly revolutionary, but also manifestly realistic. Her critical and practical suggestions warrant sustained engagement in academic policy debates, and the book is to be recommended to any reader with an interest in mental capacity and law.' John Coggon, Journal of Law and Society
'Camillia Kong's book, Mental Capacity in Relationship, is an important contribution to debates over mental capacity. It combines philosophical, psychological and legal materials in an effective and stimulating discussion of the topic. It is particularly timely given the debates over the nature of the capacity in light of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. It is an excellent, sophisticated, analysis of the issues.' Jonathan Herring, Legal Studies
