Winfield & Jolowicz on Tort, 18e

As the leading textbook on the law of tort, Winfield & Jolowicz on Tort is a definitive and all embracing guide to the subject. The book is centred firmly on English law but covers significant developments in Commonwealth countries, and where appropriate European systems of tort law. It covers all key areas of tort law so students don’t have to refer to a number of different textbooks and includes extensive use of case citations. The text also covers developments including those in causation; liability of public authorities; human rights and tort law; the development of privacy and the "Reynolds defence"; and the recasting of the economic torts. Key case law including Barker v Corus; Jameel v Wall St Journal; Mitchell v Glasgow CC; OBG v Allan; and Rothwell v Chemical & Insulating Co is analysed.
