"This new work provides a reminder of how extensive is the range ofthe law of delict The subject might suggest the image of a largemansion to which many additions have been made over the years inresponse to changing conditions in society This book rises to thechallenge and offers the fortunate visitor a systematic guide tothe edifice." From the Foreword by The Rt Hon. Lord Cullen PC, LordJustice-Clerk
The Scots law of delict encompasses a vast array of legal sourcesand contradictions many elements are modern and highly developedwhile others remain ancient and obscure. The majority of delictualprinciples are caselaw driven and yet, increasingly, legislationplays a part. Further, although the concept of delict is limited tothe Scottish jurisdiction, private international law cannot beignored. Recognising the multi-faceted nature of the subject, theauthors of Delict have produced, in one single volume, a trulycomprehensive guide to the law. Illustrated throughout withnumerous explanatory case studies, and featuring key questionsafter each chapter which act as a useful aid to comprehension, thisis essential reading for all students encountering delict for thefirst time as well as practitioners who require a ready referencefor their practice.
