Download or read book Landmark Cases in the Law of Tort written by C Mitchell and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-02-18 with total page 649 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Landmark Cases in the Law of Tort contains thirteen original essays on leading tort cases, ranging from the early nineteenth century to the present day. It is the third volume in a series of collected essays on landmark cases (the previous two volumes having dealt with restitution and contract). The cases examined raise a broad range of important issues across the law of tort, including such diverse areas as acts of state and public nuisance, as well as central questions relating to the tort of negligence. Several of the essays place cases in their historical context in ways that change our understanding of the case's significance. Sometimes the focus is on drawing out previously neglected aspects of cases which have been – undeservedly – assigned minor importance. Other essays explore the judicial methodologies and techniques that worked to shape leading principles of tort law. So much of tort law turns on cases, and there are so many cases, that all but the most recent decisions have a tendency to become reduced to terse propositions of law, so as to keep the subject manageable. This collection shows how important it is, despite the constant temptation to compression, not to lose sight of the contexts and nuances which qualify and illuminate so many leading authorities.

Download or read book Leading Cases on the Law of Torts Determined by the Courts of America and England written by Melville Madison Bigelow and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-04 with total page 802 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Leading Cases on the Law of Torts Determined by the Courts of America and England: With Notes The work now offered to the profession is the result of an attempt to furnish for ready service a collection of recognized authorities on the existing law of Torts, with a consideration of the rise and growth of the law as thus represented, followed by a statement in greater detail of its present aspect. The author has confined himself to a consideration of the typical branches of the subject, omitting bailments, marine torts, Statutory torts, and the torts of persons under legal disability. To introduce these with proper fulness would have required such a curtailing of the main branches of the subject as to destroy in a great measure the practical usefulness of the book. They were therefore omitted and reserved for future consideration, should it ever become desirable to add another volume to the work. It may be observed, however, that the topics mentioned are often incidentally presented, and their leading doctrines touched upon. Even with these omissions, it was not possible to consider in detail all of the law relating to the main branches of the subject. Slander, Trespasses upon Property, and Negligence have each been treated in text-books as large as the present volume. As to these subjects, and as to one or two others, the author was governed by the same considerations as in deciding upon the omissions above mentioned. It was thought best to present the central and prominent features of these topics in full detail, leav ing the rest for incidental mention and illustration.
