Part 2 The Torts provides succinct summaries of the main torts covered in undergraduate law courses, as well as defences. Throughout these chapters the skills focus is maintained, with a selection of problem-solving tips and exercises to help students apply what they have learnt and build on the skills introduced in Part 1.Key Features Pedagogy throughout helps students prepare for tort law assessment ‘Tort look-up charts’ provide overviews of the tort and instruct students in a logical approach to tort law problems.
