Hepple and Matthews' Tort Law: Cases and Materials

Description

New to Hart Publishing, this is the seventh edition of the classic casebook on tort, the first of its kind in the UK, and for many years now a bestselling and very popular text for students. This new edition retains all the features that have made it such a popular and respected text, with extensive commentary, questions and notes supplementing the selection of cases and statutes which form the core of the book. Taking a broadly contextual approach, the book addresses all the main topics in tort law, is up-to-date, doctrinally sound, stimulating and highly readable.

Review of the previous edition: An extremely accessible, useful and impressive collection of cases and materials. -- unknown * Student Law Journal * Review of the previous edition: The extracts are expertly chosen and provide the necessary information without being too brief. The text, whilst being accessible, is also thought-provoking with a number of excellent questions posed at the end of extracts allowing the reader to consider an issue's wider implications. -- unknown * Student Law Journal * Review of the previous edition: I have no hesitation in recommending Hepple & Matthews' Tort: Cases and Materials to anyone interested in or studying this intriguing area of law. Its advantages are two-fold: it is written in an extremely accessible and clear way and, at the same time, encourages the reader to undertake independent research and thought. -- unknown * Student Law Journal *
