It spurs us to question how we would like to live, how our affairs should be managed, if we can no longer think for ourselves. ... This book cuts through legal jargon to make the LPA understandable and accessible to everyone." Vincent Ooi Lecturer of Law Singapore Management University (SMU) School of Law--Vincent Ooi
