Providing detailed commentary of unrivalled quality on the process of civil litigation, this is the only major civil work to adopt a narrative approach based on the chronology of a claim. Written by a team of expert practitioners and academics, it provides authoritative analysis on the process of civil litigation from commencement of a claim to enforcement of judgments, addressing civil procedure in the county courts, the High Court, the Court of Appeal, and the Supreme Court. The book also considers more specialist matters such as insolvency proceedings, sale of goods, and human rights, providing expert analysis on a comprehensive level. Commentary is combined with the text of the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR), Practice Directions (PD), and Pre-Action Protocols and Procedural Checklists, all fully cross-referenced to the text to ensure ease of use for the busy practitioner. As well as a detailed and user-friendly index the quick-reference guide inside the front cover provides an alternative point of access for those more familiar with the CPR.
Also available, Blackstone's Civil Practice: The Commentary 2013 is a concise new book providing the unique commentary independently from the CPR, PD and other appendix materials. Electronic versions of the Procedural Checklists in Blackstone's Civil Practice 2013 are available from IRIS Laserform.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
`Review from previous edition A new friend, but now a constant companion. An essential first point of reference for all levels of civil law practitioners.'

`Being in one volume and having a user-friendly index, it is an indispensable tool for the busy judge.'
District Judge Ackroyd
`An up to date text book, reference book and exceptionally practical guide rolled into one priceless volume, I have no hesitation in strongly recommending Blackstone's Civil Practice 2011 as an essential first point of call for all Deputy and Full Time District Judges (Civil). If you were to buy only one book to help you with all aspects of the civil jurisdiction then this is surely it.'
District Judge Lumb, Midlands Circuit
`The book is absolutely fantastic and a necessary tool for every practitioner and academic with an interest in Civil Procedure.'
Dr. Gregory Ioannidis, Advocate, Head of Sports Law, CGV & Co LLC
`No civil practitioner should be without the latest edition of Blackstone's Civil Practice. Concise yet compendious, this publication contains not only the full text of the Civil Procedure Rules and Practice Directions, but also a clearly written commentary on all aspects of civil procedure (from commencement of proceedings all the way through to appeals and enforcement of judgments and orders). Blackstone's Civil Practice should be one of the core
reference works in any civil practitioner's library.'
David Wicks, Barrister, Pump Court Chambers
`Clear, weighty and attractively set out Blackstone's Civil Practice is a comprehensive resource for the civil practitioner.'
Alison Hawes, Partner, TLT LLP
