Description and Table of Contents

Description

Focusing on all non-sexual offences against the person, this text provides a practical in-depth explanation of this increasingly complex area of law. This edition has been substantially rewritten to incorporate all developments in the law and the recent work of the Law Commission. The book provides a structured insight into the definitions and elements of each offence. It also explains the meanings of such concepts as "intent", "malice" and "recklessness' in the context of established authorities.
