"Law of Tort" has established a reputation as a concise, clear and up to date student textbook on the main principles of the law of torts. Clear and succinct explanation of the main principles of the law of tort are supported by a variety of extracts from key judgments and statutes plus questions and specimen answers. "" This sixth edition includes expanded coverage of the Human Rights Act 1998 as caselaw under this statute starts to appear in the UK courts, including a full discussion of the impact of recent cases such as Douglas and Others v Hello! Ltd on the emerging law of privacy in UK law. This edition also includes a detailed consideration of the impact of recent decisions on duty of care, particularly those owed by public bodies and local authorities, e.g. "Z v UK" (2001) and "Osman v UK" (1999) to bring this controversial area of law fully up to date.
