Beskrivning

Criminal Law Perspectives: From Principles to Practice provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to criminal law for undergraduate and postgraduate students. It takes a comparative approach to the law, focusing on New South Wales, Victoria, the Australian Capital Territory and the Commonwealth Criminal Code, as well as the South Australian jurisdiction. Now in its second edition, Criminal Law Perspectives maintains its logical structure and clear explanations of complex concepts. It has been updated to include major developments in the law, including affirmative consent reforms, the criminalisation of coercive control and industrial manslaughter offences. Comprehensive jurisdictional extracts and relevant case examples are used to illustrate key principles of criminal law explored throughout the book. Students are encouraged to reflect and develop their problem-solving skills by engaging with the various features in each chapter, including review questions, case questions, hints and tips, and long-form end-of-chapter problem questions.
