This popular text has been completely revised and largely rewritten to offer the most complete and detailed study of UK Tort Law available. In this expanded edition, the authors clearly explain how and why this branch of law has suffered as a result of conflicting judicial, academic, and legislative attempts to shape and rationalize it. This edition includes enlarged sections on product liability, damages, medical liability, and privacy; and a new section on governmental liability. Aimed at students, but useful for practitioners given the more detailed treatment of each area, this book is the ideal text for the study of British Tort Law.

Originally published under the names Dias and Markesinis, this is a guide to torts for students and practitioners. The authors explain why and how this branch of the law is so intellectually untidy, and they show how it has suffered as a result of conflicting judicial, academic and legislative attempts to shape and rationalize it. For this edition, the text has been substantially rewritten by Simon Deakin and Basil Markesinis. The treatment of the subject is now far more detailed and the sections on product liability, damages, medical liability, and privacy has been expanded.

This new fourth edition of Tort Law has been completely revised and updated to take account of developments since the last edition a new section on vicarious liability has been added.The principal aim of this text is to provide a modern and accessible presentation of the law for students taking degrees at universities and colleges. At the same time the book does not seek to conceal the dynamic conceptual nature of tort law, nor its links with social and commercial policy. Theincreasingly important relationships between the concepts underlying tortious liability and those underlying liability in contract and restitution are brought out and historical and economic perspectives are, wherever possible, integrated into the analysis of doctrine. The impact of insurance, theinterrelationship of damages awards with the tax and social security systems and the emergence of structured settlements are accordingly given prominent coverage. More generally there is an acknowledgement that legislative policy plays a central part in shaping the development of the modernlaw.
