Features: Pearson UK is a global leader in education publishing, and Longman is a renowned educational book brand under the group. Torts is one of the Longman Pearson Law Foundations series launched by the group. As a common law system, British tort law differs significantly from the civil law system of tort law in continental countries, with distinct differences in litigation methods, forms, legal grounds, and more. The text of this book is concise and well-structured. British tort judgments are often obscure and authoritative works are difficult to understand, while the author strives to outline the basic rules of tort law in brief language. When applying specific rules, typical cases are introduced in brief language, or clear examples are used to explain these rules.
