Overview"This is a one-stop study system for law degree students covering all the core subjects. Focusing on the law of torts, this book contains everything needed to understand and pass the LLB exams. Each chapter contains a set of learning objectives, research activities, self-assessment questions, and some also include end-of-chapter assessment questions. The cases and materials referred to in the ""Text"" are contained in the companion ""Cases and Materials"" volume, which also contains answers to the end-of-chapter assessment questions. This text is designed as an introduction to the major torts, especially negligence abd its specialised subtorts, the trespass torts and nuisance. There is a strong emphasis on remedies, and on the underlying rationale of the different torts. Tort is one area where the House of Lords has been very active, and the latest cases, including Cambridge Water, X (minors) v Bedfordshire County Council and White v Jones are fully covered. Used together with ""Blackstone's LLB Cases and Materials"" this book provides a complete study programme for the law student, enabling them to study in their own time and at their own pace."
