Furthermore, the book discusses the regulatory landscape and the ethical responsibilities of healthcare providers. This knowledge empowers readers to engage in meaningful discussions with their healthcare professionals, ensuring that treatment decisions are well-informed and driven by a comprehensive understanding of potential risks.
