Overview

This book offers a concise and focused way to ensure students gain a solid understanding of the most important areas of tort. With the emphasis on problem-solving and method, each chapter, section and extract is introduced by an author's note and each extract is then linked to the next by notes and reflective questions. The notes concisely explain the important of each extract, showing how such material might be used in a problem-solving context. The notes and questions also point the way to further reading and research, thus making the book a vital link between the lecture hall, the physical and electronic libraries and the factual situations that create tort litigation. Uniquely, the book also draws upon the growing European influences that the judges themselves are now finding of importance in difficult cases.
