Tort Law: Text, Cases, and Materials continues to provide an accessible book which impressively weaves together text and expertly selected cases and materials. * Student Law Journal * [Steele] wonderfully weaves cases and materials into the substantive text. Readers will find the extracts are superbly selected: being both the right length and extremely relevant. Steele's written style is also enjoyable and engaging. She explains complex issues expertly and in relatively short and manageable sections. * Student Law Journal * Review from previous edition An ideal companion for navigating the law of torts in its contemporary context. * Legal Studies, Vol. 28 No. 2 * Texts incorporating cases and materials can easily appear dense and overwhelming to student eyes. There are two principal reasons why this book has no such appearance. First, the font and layout of the text make all the materials look accessible and, secondly, the materials have been selected and edited in such a way that they actually are accessible. None of the extracts are unnecessarily lengthy, and the author's analysis regularly breaks up any complex material so
as to clarify any difficult points, and to encourage the reader to identify and consider the most relevant issues in more depth. * Legal Studies, Vol. 28 No. 2 * A clear and concise review of the law and sparks debate about its future direction. A quality 'one-stop shop' for Tort Law. * Professor Jack Anderson, School of Law, Queen's University Belfast * An excellent textbook from a respected voice in the field with coverage and analysis that goes beyond other texts in this area. * Dr Caroline Jones, Senior Lecturer in Law, Southampton University * Comprehensive and well-written, offering a very good blend of original material and commentary. * Professor Keith Stanton, Professor of Law, Bristol University * Clear explanations and detailed analysis by a leading scholar in the field. Steele's Tort Law is the best of its kind. * Professor Stephen Bailey, Professor of Public Law, University of Nottingham *
