Brentwood District Council, Khorasandjian v. Bush, White v. Jones and R. v. Deputy Governor of Parkhurst Prison, ex p. Hague. The seventeenth edition has been extensively revised and restructured to reflect these developments. The chapter on negligence is almost entirely new in context and form. In-depth examination of developments in defamation. Comprehensive review of the crucial role now played by economic torts.
