'Steel's comprehensive scholarship and razor-sharp analysis promises to bring some much-needed clarity to an area of the law in dire need of reform. I hope and expect it will be widely read.' Alex Kaiserman, Cambridge Law Journal 'Dr Steel has been able to survey the field and test the various parts for consistency, normative justification, practicality and morality. He has been able to bring to bear a huge quantity of literature in English, French and German. His bibliography, by my count, runs to over 800 separate items. All this with remarkable clarity and conciseness. If, as seems all too likely, there are to be further difficult cases on causation, the judiciary will at least be able to test their intuitions against the analysis in this book.' Lord Hoffmann, Law Quarterly Review 'A very substantial contribution to the literature ...' Chris Miller, Professional Negligence
