“Here is a famous textbook ... if I was stranded on a desert island and allowed one legal text, it would have to be this favourite volume”
Review of the previous edition – The Law Teacher, 2005
Now in its fifteenth edition, Smith and Keenan’s English Law has firmly established itself as the all-purpose introduction to English law. Uniquely comprehensive in its coverage, the textbook examines the English legal system and main areas of substantive law including contract, tort, criminal, property and employment law in one volume.
Key features:
- closely cross-referenced casebook section allows students to read the facts and decisions of over 500 cases in depth
- attractive, two colour text design that doesn’t overwhelm the student and allows easy navigation throughout the text
- companion website containing regular legal updates and invaluable support for teachers in the form of an Instructor’s Manual
- boxed examples citing relevant cases clearly distinguished from the main body of the text
The new edition has been brought fully up to date to include:
- the Employment Act 2004, the Equality Act 2006, and the Work and Families Act 2006, the Age Discrimination Regulations and the Mental Capacity act 2006
- developments in the Offences Against the Person Act 1861, including grievous bodily harm by transmission of sexually transmitted diseases
- recent developments in tort law including the rule of joint vicarious liability and the Compensation Act 2006
- the new offence of causing or allowing the death of a child or vulnerable adult and the changes to fitness to plead under the Domestic Crime and Victims Act 2004.
- considerable changes within the English Legal System, including the Constitutional Reform Act 2008 and the new rules pertaining to the legal profession and legal aid, changes in the judiciary, the new Special Advocate system in terrorist and other security cases, and the increased role of the Lord Chief Justice, Judicial Appointments Commission and judicial ombudsman
- more material on all aspects of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 as it has come into force particularly in relation to sexual offences
- case law developments in human rights, particularly in the area of privacy and a full update of employment case law.
