The fifth edition brings the work up to date with wide-ranging developments in the law since the 4th edition was published in 1996.

This is an invaluable tool for common law (and particularly personal injury) practitioners where this book is particularly strong....a repository of useful knowledge....a practical help mate to the busy lawyer.This work succinctly identifies the questions which should be asked and the range of likely answers as well as offering a clear narrative of the progression of tort in an increasingly litigious world. Litigation - of previous edition.
