Description and Table of Contents
Description
Starting with a definition of tort law, this book examines such issues as negligent and deliberate harm to property, nuisance and trespass to land and remedies. The second edition of this work takes account of the diverse changes in tort law that have occurred since 1998. The controversial area of counsel's immunity from suit is considered, as are important cases, such as Pickford v ICI on liability for RSI caused by poor working practices and White v Chief Constable of South Yorkshire on nervous shock.
