'Proportional Liability in Medical Malpractice Cases' This book deals with two possible solutions to the problem of uncertain causation between medical error and the damage suffered by the patient under German law - the pro rata liability rule and the all-or-nothing rule. Two interesting results: Firstly, the all-or-nothing rule could be as efficient as the pro rata liability rule; secondly, the Chinese medical malpractice law adopts a pro rata liability rule, which empirically did not work well und is theoretically based on many false assumptions.
