Beskrivning
The law of torts is concerned with the secondary obligations generated by the infringement of primary rights. This work seeks to show that this apparently simple proposition enables us to understand the law of torts as found in the common law. Using primarily English materials, but drawing heavily upon the law of other common law jurisdictions, Stevens seeks to give an account of the law of torts which relies upon the core material familiar to most students and practitioners with a grasp of the law of torts. This material is drawn together in support of a single argument in a provocative and accessible style, and puts forward a new theoretical model for analysing the law of torts, providing an overarching framework for radically reconceiving the subject.

Recensioner i media

It may not be the text for a practitioner who looks for his law to be pre-processed in such a way that with a minimum amount of warming up and nothing in the way of elaboration it can be served up to the bench and found palatable, but for those who prefer to sharpen their presentations with fresh material and the spice of controversy, this is a book which should be on the shelf and kept within easy reach.
