Reviews

`This interesting book undertakes the difficult task of examining the various attempts to distinguish the essential qualities of the 'reasonable person' from those that can be disregarded.' The Cambridge Law Journal `This is an illuminating and persuasive account of judicial interpretation of the reasonable person standard. It draws together work from a number of legal disciplines (including, in particular, the criminal law) in a clear and convincing manner, and offers thought-provoking suggestions for the future.' The Cambridge Law Journal `This book is scholarly and challenging but also provides a succinct and, by and large, admirably clear account of a number of areas of interest.' The Cambridge Law Journal


The author dissects the concept of the reasonable person with intelligence and wit. ... This excellent book will no doubt be at the centre of debates about the reasonable person standard for some considerable time to come. European Tort Law 2003: Tort and Insurance Law Yearbook
