From the Back Cover

McBride & Bagshaw, Tort Law, 5e

Written by two leading scholars, Tort Law combines detailed coverage of the legal principles, supported by hypothetical case scenarios and guided further reading, with analysis of the key academic debates, theories and literature which underpin the subject making it ideal for use by anyone studying tort law at undergraduate or postgraduate level.

Extensively updated, this new edition covers all important case-law and legislative developments most notably Michael v Chief Constable of South Wales Police (2015), Lawrence v Fen Tigers Ltd (2014) and the Defamation Act 2013. 

 

"McBride and Bagshaw is an excellent teaching aid, easy to read, thorough, and it explains the material well.  Its high quality analysis is a source of reference for students and academics alike.  The authors' views are both challenging and thoughtful." Phillip Morgan, Lecturer in Law, University of York

 

“McBride and Bagshaw continues to be a truly superb textbook: it provides extremely clear, wide-ranging, explanation of what the law is alongside thought-provoking critique.” Associate Professor Sandy Steel, Wadham College, Oxford

 

"By a distance the most intelligent and insightful textbook on tort and the best at getting students to think about and make sense of the law." Dr Charlie Webb, Lecturer in Law, LSE

 

"The fourth edition of McBride and Bagshaw’s Tort Law is wonderful. The scope and depth of the text is impressive. It simultaneously covers areas of tort law that are often neglected by other student-level texts and critically evaluates academic criticisms and interpretations of this law. I will continue to recommend it as the first port of call for anyone looking for a well-written and accessible discussion of English tort law."  Professor Jason Neyers, Western University Canada

 

“This is a well written, comprehensive text, which encourages students to take a broad view of tort law and to think about some of the moral and other issues that have influenced the development of this area of law.”  Dr Timon Hughes-Davies, University of Exeter
