Description
"Butterworths Core Text Series provides students with books which cover the core of a particular subject without over-simplifying and in a way that is accessible, yet authoritative - at an affordable price. The latest edition of Butterworths Core Text Series: Tort takes account of the diverse changes in tort law that have occurred since the last edition. The Human Rights Act 1998 has again been included, with discussion on its implications along with a number of significant new cases. Important cases include Campbell v Mirror Group Newspapers ( on privacy) Marcic v Thames Water Utilities (on nuisance and human rights), and Vellino v Chief Constable of Greater Manchester (on ex turpi causa)."
