Ashworth's Principles of Criminal Law by Jeremy Horder

Ashworth's Principles of Criminal Law by Jeremy Horder

Ashworth's Principles of Criminal Law, now in its eight edition, takes a distinctly different approach to the study of criminal law, whilst still covering all of the vital topics found on criminal law courses. Uniquely theoretical, it seeks to elucidate the underlying principles and theoretical foundations of the criminal law, and aims to critically engage readers by contextualizing and analysing the law. This is essential reading for students seeking a sophisticated and critically engaging exploration of the subject. The text is accompanied by an Online Resource Centre housing a full bibliography as well as a selection of useful web links.

A classic introduction for law students..coherent and accessible...its insight will stimulate all but the most cynical observers of the operation of criminal law in England and Wales. * Times Higher Education *
A valuable addition to the libraries of all criminal lawyers...a comprehensive, eloquent work on criminal law principles and their application. * The Criminal Law Quarterly *
