The Law of Torts

by Joseph W. Glannon

The Law of Torts Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

These distinctive characteristics earned the book its reputation for effectiveness: - highly respected author, whose best-selling Civil Procedure: Examples & Explanations has been a lifesaver for first-year students - uniquely entertaining writing style that captures and holds student interest - coverage of the standard topics from most Torts courses — intentional torts, negligence, causation, duty, damages, liability of multiple defendants, and the effect of the plaintiff's conduct - three-chapter section on Taking a Torts Essay Exam supplies guidance, tips, and sample exam questions and answers The Third Edition introduces important material: - two new chapters on Products Liability, one on theories of recovery in strict products liability cases and one on common defenses to strict products liability claims - completely updated text, with citations reflecting the most current law
