The second edition of Advanced Torts focuses primarily on tort theories that are not covered in significant detail in the standard first-semester Torts course, such as legal malpractice, defamation, invasion of privacy, interference with contractual relations, misrepresentation and related theories, bad faith claims, aiding and abetting liability, and misuse of the legal process.
The book may be used as a textbook by professors teaching an FYLSE review course. It can also be used as a supplemental resource for students taking Contracts, Torts, and Criminal Law.
Every tort claim for relief, and every affirmative tort defense, has a set of required elements. It is the student's task to learn these elements and to develop an understanding about how to apply them to real and hypothetical fact patterns. Questions & Answers: Torts can help you with this task. The book includes 202 questions - some tough and some relatively easy - organized by topic.
Recreation and Risk explores the law through recreational businesses—mostly amusement parks, but also water parks, haunted houses, ski resorts, and more.
