New health technologies promise improved quality of life for patients suffering from a range of diseases, and the potential for the prevention of incidence of disease in the future. At the same time, new health technologies pose significant challenges for governments, particularly in relation to ensuring the technologies are safe, effective, and provide appropriate value for (public) money. To guard against the possible dangers arising from new health technologies, and to maximize the benefits, all European governments regulate their development, marketing, and public financing. In addition, several international institutions operating at European level, in particular the European Union, the Council of Europe, and the European Patent Office, have become involved in the regulation of new health technologies. They have done so both through traditional 'command and control' legal measures, and through other regulatory mechanisms, including guidelines, soft law, 'steering' through redistribution of resources, and private or quasi-private regulation.     This collection analyses European law and its relationships with new health technologies. It uses interdisciplinary insights, particularly from law but also drawing on regulation theory, and science and technology studies, to shed new light on some of the key defining features of the relationships and especially the roles of risk, rights, ethics, and markets. The collection explores the way in which European law's engagement with new health technologies is to be legitimized, and discusses the implications for biological or biomedical citizenship.  aAll rights reserveduhttp://oapen.org/content/about-rights  aEnglish 7aMedical & healthcare law2bicssc  aeuropean law  ahealth  ahealth technologies  aregulation theory1 aFarrell, Anne-Maree4edt1 aFarrell, Anne-Maree4oth1 aFlear, Mark L4oth1 aHervey, Tamara K4edt1 aHervey, Tamara K4oth1 aMurphy, Thérèse4edt1 aMurphy, Thérèse4oth0 aDOAB Library.40uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/3020470zFree-to-read: DOAB: description of the publication  c92766d92766
