Description
"Evidence" explains the fundamentals of the law of evidence and looks at the principles behind it. It is aimed at satisfying the needs of undergraduates approaching the subject, while also providing a clear and practical exposition of the law for LPC and BVC students. This new edition has been thoroughly updated throughout to include the impact of the Criminal Justice Act 2003, and is now even more student-friendly with new Hot Topic sections highlighting key controversial issues.
