Details

Law of Torts provides scholarly descriptions and analysis of the law pertaining to tort, with comprehensive coverage of all common law and statutory torts across all jurisdictions.

The work covers the civil wrongs protecting intentional injury to person and property; the tort of negligence, with respect both to personal and property damage and for the recovery of purely economic loss; those torts, such as nuisance, in which neither intention nor negligence is necessarily relevant; defamation; and the economic torts which protect the intentional infringement of another's trade or business.

Important Features:

· Detailed discussion and analysis of the uniform defamation legislation.
· Numerous new cases including OBG Ltd v Allen, Sweeney v Boylan Nominees Pty Ltd, Leichhardt - Municipal Council v Montgomery and New South Wales v Ibbett.
· An ideal text for both the student and practitioner.
