The American tort system is a unique system in that it possesses many characteristics about which very little is known in the UK, or in Europe. Professor Fleming, a world-famous legal scholar who specializes in tort, has had the opportunity of observing at first-hand the operation of the tort system in many jurisdictions throughout the world. He brings that experience to bear in a penetrating account of the singular way in which the American tort system has evolved and works today.

The late John Fleming, emeritus Professor of Law in the University of California at Berkeley, was the pre-eminent torts lawyer of the age; his Law of Torts has influenced generations of students and scholars, and remains a classic of legal literature. In this volume, distinguished academics and judges from around the world pay tribute to him in a collection of essays which range widely across tort law, legal theory, legal history and comparative law. Topics discussed include: tort and human rights; the duty of care in negligence; codification of the law of obligations in Europe; the basis of strict liability in particular and of responsibility generally in tort law; and aspects of products liability. These stimulating essays have much to say about the past, present and future of the law of obligations and will be of great interest to scholars and lawyers of all legal systems. From the editors' preface John Fleming was one of the most influential writers on the law of torts and comparative law in the English-speaking world this century. His towering contribution to scholarship is evidenced not only by the great prestige his work attracts in academic circles but also by the frequency and high respect with which his work is cited by judges in appellate courts of many jurisdictions. The authors of this collection of essays on the law of obligations intend it as a tribute to his achievements.

The principal concern of the law of torts is to repair accident losses. but its role has altered over the years as a result of such factors as the wider use of private and liability insurance. This completely revised and updated edition looks at the effect of these changes on the law, and an entirely new chapter compares tort with no-fault compensation in the light of accepted accident compensation policies.
