About this title

Review

“It is written with great lucidity, a clear appreciation of some of its own controversies, and to high standards of scholarship ... it provides an important contribution to the debate about how carer rights should be configured in the context of tort litigation.' Law Quarterly Review

'... careful analysis and thoughtful proposals ...' Ken Oliphant, Cardiff University

Book Description

Degeling explains the phenomenon of shared damages by which a stranger to litigation is entitled to participate in the claimant's damages. Core examples are the carer of a victim of tort who shares in the victim's damages and the indemnity insurer which participates in the damages won by the insured. This will interest restitution and obligations lawyers, and tort and insurance lawyers, both academic and practitioner.
