Product description

Published to supplement Luntz et al, Luntz & Hambly’s Torts: Cases, Legislation and Commentary, this text covers the additional torts of defamation, trespass to goods, detinue and conversion. Each chapter follows the style of the principal text to deliver a critical and analytical approach to the law relating to these torts, presented through extensive commentary and selected materials from case decisions, legislation and academic writings. Detailed notes assist students and practitioners to understand the significance of the key cases while questions stimulate critical thinking and learning. Discussion of and excerpts from important cases and statutes are provided, while current and emerging issues in tort law reform are considered. Many additional references to the academic literature are also supplied.

The work can be used in combination with the principal text or as a standalone resource. This supplement will be essential reading for students in both core and advanced torts units, while practitioners will find it an authoritative resource.

Fully revised and updated, this third edition includes comment on recent cases dealing with the legal status of crypto-currency as personal property, and on amendments to the law of defamation adding a new element of serious harm, a new defence of public interest, and defences applying to “digital intermediaries” such as internet service providers and search engines.
