OverviewThe fourth edition of Blackstone's Questions and Answers Family Law shows students how to make the most of their examination and coursework potential in this perennially popular and important subject. Students are given the opportunity to practise their exam techniques and evaluate and assess their progress. The fourth edition of this popular student text builds upon its past successes in showing undergraduates how to translate their knowledge of family and child law into a successful and confident approach to coursework and exams. It demonstrates, by example, how to attack problem and essay questions in family and child law. All aspects of family law are covered, including marriage and cohabitation, children, money and property - and the authors explain how a well-directed knowledge of the relevant public and private law can be employed to achieve better results. They also cover recent developments in such key areas as civil partnerships, domestic violence, gender recognition, assisted reproduction, and pre-marital contracts. Companion web site The new edition has a companion web site offering web links to key sites, and a subject specific glossary.
