The Anatomy of Tort Law by Peter Cane

Accessible yet theoretically stimulating analysis which depicts tort law as a system of ethical rules and principles of personal responsibility.
..Cane is sweet reasonableness throughout ...Cane says, and shows, that there is much to be learnt by unpacking the various torts and reorganising their elements under the headings of plaintiff's interest, defendant's conduct and what the law does about it...admirably written. in an easy loping style...very welcome. Tony Weir Cambridge Law Journal September 2002 ...the book stands as a statement of an approach to the subject of tort favoured by one of the leading scholars working in the field. On these grounds alone it should be read by every serious student of the law of tort. Keith Stanton Legal Studies September 2002 This book is a valuable addition to legal scholarship. Its strength lies not in expounding the law but in presenting considered reflections about tort law and the place of that branch of the law in the overall legal landscape. Martin Vranken Torts Law Journal September 2002
For 20 years, Peter Cane taught law at Corpus Christi College, Oxford. Since 1997 he has been a Professor of Law in the Research School of Social Sciences at the Australian National University.
