A Casebook on Tort by Tony Weir
This casebook on tort is widely recognised as the leading sourcebook in the field. It brings together selected extracts of all the leading cases, statutes and other essential materials. The materials are linked by a perceptive and stimulating commentary that both illustrates and explains the significance of judicial decisions, while guiding the reader through the difficult statutory material. Questions at the end of the extracts help promote analysis of the materials and ensure that they are fully understood. The coverage in this edition includes such recent cases as that of the unwanted baby, the shocked policeman, the failed health food shop, the would-be pirate and the angry depositors in BCCI. It also takes account of the Human Rights Act, the Competition Act and the Prevention of Harassment Act and makes mention of the proposals of the Law Commission.
Very stimulating and clever.. very good introductory essay to the bookWorth reading. Or rather Weir himself is nearly always worth reading, for information and provocation; stimulus and entertainment.
