Principles of Tort Law

Principles of Tort Law by Rachael Mulheron

Presenting the law of tort as a body of principles, this authoritative textbook gives an incisive understanding of the subject. Each tort is carefully structured and examined within a consistent analytical framework that guides students through its preconditions, elements, defences and remedies. Clear summaries and comparisons accompany the detailed exposition, and further support is provided by diagrams and tables which clarify complex aspects of the law. Critical discussion of legal judgments encourages students to develop strong analytical and case-reading skills, whilst key reform proposals and leading cases from other jurisdictions illustrate different potential solutions to conundrums in tort law. Ten additional chapters on more advanced topics can be found online, completing the learning package. This new edition has been updated to take account of important cases, legislative developments and law reform studies since July 2015.

'The second edition of Professor Mulheron's magisterial work consolidates its position as a comprehensive, compelling and insightful account of the principles of our Tort Law' Rt. Hon. Lord John Dyson, Essex Chambers
'This is a superb book. Its unique approach combines a Restatement of principles with an in-depth analysis of the case law. The overall result is an illuminating, accessible, and practically useful account of the English law of tort.' Lord Andrew Burrows, Justice of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom
