Tort Law by Tony Weir

This addition to the "Clarendon Law Series" offers a clear exposition of the modern law of tort and addresses all heads of the subject. It provides both a succinct and thoughtful overview for those coming to Tort for the first time and also pulls together themes and raises thought-provoking insights and synergies for those reading it after completing the course. Tony Weir presents both in-depth discussion and thorough analysis of recent cases and trends, notably in areas such as: liability of public authorities for child abuse; impact of the Human Rights Act; privacy; and liability of police.
"A very useful short introduction to the subject written with this writer's usual wit and capacity to go to the centre of an issue" Lesley Phippen, Director of Legal Studies, University of Kent, Medway campus "A most remarkable little book on torts, brilliant and incisive... one of the best supplementary readings to make sense of the topic." E. Descheemaeker, Oxford University
