Download or read book Introduction to the English Legal System Revision Guide written by Özgür Heval Çınar and published by Transnational Press London. This book was released on 2021-02-08 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The real reason for the emergence of this book is that it is hard to find resources to explain complex issues of the EU Law in plain language, which makes it very difficult for those taking an interest, in particular law students. Moreover, many years of teaching experience in this subject and seeing students experience difficulties is the key driver behind this book. This book does not repeat material that is available in many textbooks that are in print. Rather, it endeavours to present every topic in plain language and concludes every chapter with a fictitious explanatory sample case. In other words, it is an introduction to the subject of EU Law, the objective of which is to explain the topic both theoretically and in its application dimension. Additionally, this book will assist students to prepare for courseworks/examinations. At the end of the book there is also a test that summarizes all the subjects contained in the book, which is appropriate to the first stage SQE (Solicitors Qualifying Examination) examination model that will be introduced in September 2021. ‘This is a clear and concise book with many helpful visual aids (diagrams, tables etc…) that make it very easy to follow. The content defines, explains and covers the key aspects of the English Legal System.’ Ms Amel Ketani, Barrister and Senior Lecturer at BPP University ‘Through explanation, questions and application examples, this book compliments traditional English Legal System textbooks in an easily accessible and practically useful way.’ Dr Ryan Hill, Deputy Head of School, Anglia Ruskin University Law School CONTENTS: Abbreviations About the author Foreword.

Download or read book Contract Law written by John Cartwright and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-02 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives an introduction to the English law of contract. The third edition has been fully updated to cover recent developments in case law and recent statutes such as the Consumer Rights Act 2015. However, this new edition retains the primary focus of the earlier editions: it is designed to introduce the lawyer trained in a civil law jurisdiction to the method of reasoning in the common law, and in particular to the English law of contract. It is written for the lawyer - whether student or practitioner - from another jurisdiction who already has an understanding of a (different) law of contract, but who wishes to discover the way in which an English lawyer views a contract. However, it is also useful for the English law student: setting English contract law generally in the context of other European and international approaches, the book forms an introductory text, not only demonstrating how English contract law works but also giving a glimpse of different ways of thinking about some of the fundamental rules of contract law from a civil law perspective. After a general introduction to the common law system - how a common lawyer reasons and finds the law - the book explains the principles of the law of contract in English law covering all the aspects of a contract from its formation to the remedies available for breach, whilst directing attention in particular to those areas where the approach of English law is in marked contrast to that taken in many civil law systems.
