In a society shaped by deep inequalities, where healthcare and legal systems often reinforce class, caste, religion, and gender hierarchies, this book offers a powerful examination of patienthood in India. Through its critical approach, it seeks to disrupt binariessuch as universalistic and particularistic values and data versus theorywhile decentering normative discourses by foregrounding lived experiences within the context. It offers philosophical and conceptual insights that extend far beyond local variations and contexts, challenging dominant narratives in global discourses on medical decision-making and concepts such as informed consent, autonomy, and respect.This book critiques the archetype of the passive patient entrenched in both medicine and law in India an image that undermines agency, diminishes self-respect, and sustains a culture of disrespect.

It explores law and medicines role in maintaining presumed 'passive patient' archetype, especially through legal judgements and healthcare encounters.
