Publisher Summary 1
Henderson (law, Cornell University Law School) takes a process perspective in this casebook for law students, integrating discussion of tort theory, policy issues, and ethical considerations with an understanding of the role of the lawyer, the trial judge, the jury, and the appellate court in resolving tort claims. A variety of cases and commentaries are presented, and problems challenge students to apply their doctrinal understanding to concrete circumstances. For this seventh edition, the former Chapter 3 has been divided into two chapters: duty of care and proof of breach, and proximate causation, special categories of nonrecovery, and defenses. There is also a new chapter on international and comparative aspects of tort law, and revised material on liability insurance. Annotation 漏2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
