Description
In this thoroughly revised and updated second edition of "The Law of Torts," Professor Osborne provides a concise and accessible introduction to the essential principles of tort law and to the social policies that support these principles. The book is written for students who are coming to the study of torts for the first time and for practitioners who may be looking for an up-to-date refresher of the basic principles underlying judicial policies and current trends. Professor Osborne reviews the foundations, characteristics, and objectives of tort law generally with specific discussion of the central concepts of negligence. He concludes with an insightful commentary on the present state of tort law in Canada and its future as we move into the 21st century. The book includes an extensive glossary of terms.
