| Summary |
This book aims to provide a detailed analysis and overview of the duty of care enquiry, drawing on both academic analyses and judicial experience in leading common law systems. A new structure through which duty problems can be analysed is also proposed. Given the vast number of issues currently dealt with in the duty enquiry, the book puts forward several original arguments that provide fresh and original insight into this core concept in tort law, both in academia and in practice. The main overall achievement is to provide clarity of the concept to the reader.-- Provided by Publisher |
