Details

Evidence - The Fundamentals introduces students to the principles of the law of evidence by way of clear text combined with charts, grids and diagrams.

 

  • Seeks to explain not merely the rules and principles but also their provenance and continued utility
  • Includes full coverage of all topics likely to be studied on law of evidence courses at undergraduate level and ILEX level 6
  • Opens each chapter with a bulleted outline of the main concepts and ideas to be covered in that chapter and closes each chapter with a summary to recap the main points
  • Provides a question along with answer and answer tips at the end of each chapter
  • Uses charts, grids and diagrams to enable students to grasp complex legal principles with ease
  • Follows a new and improved layout with more pedagogical features than before, such as ‘Over to You’ boxes to truly engage students and get them thinking more critically about the subject
  • Assumes no prior knowledge of the subject - allowing the book to be used for those new to the subject and for distance learning courses

 

"I am confident that this book will enable students to grasp the law of evidence and its practical impact on the preparation and presentation of the client’s case more clearly." Solicitors Journal
