The legal rules,

by extracts from cases, statutes and regulatory documents. Critical
commentary is provided both within the text itself and through the
incorporation of a wide selection of extracts from academic articles
and books, providing students with the detailed knowledge and
analytical tools required to engage with this area of law.
