Tort Law - Basil S. Markesinis

Originally published under the names Dias and Markesinis, this is an acclaimed guide to torts for students and practitioners.

New to this edition: For the new 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 have been expanded.
