内容説明

The first edition of this title was regarded as a landmark publication in personal injury practice. Each succeeding edition has built on this reputation and the book has now firmly established itself as essential reading for all those involved in the area of personal injury. The Guidelines are designed to provide a clear and logical framework for the assessment of damages while leaving the discretion of the assessor unfettered, since every case must depend to a degree on its own facts. They provide an invaluable guide to all those involved in personal injury litigation: solicitors, barristers, insurance companies, trade unions, and the medical defence organizations. As with previous editions, all judges involved in hearing personal injury cases will automatically receive a copy of the book. This seventh edition has been fully updated to take account of inflation and decisions made in the two years. The figures will be increased to take into account the RPI increases since the last edition and further altered to reflect decisions of the higher courts on quantum. There will also be new sections on chronic pain, chronic fatigue syndrome, somataform disorders, chronic pain and Chronic Pain Syndrome. Plus revised and re-written sections on Asbestos related Disease, Vibration White Finger and Finger and Hand-Arm Vibration.
