Description

"The many and varied developments in the field of torts during the last 4 years mean that this new, 9th edition of Todd on Torts (formerly The Law of Torts in New Zealand) already is needed. As with previous editions, it seeks to explain and to discuss the evolving law in New Zealand and also to cover significant developments in the wider common law world. Major new or rewritten topics include: *The impact of tikanga Māori on the developing common law of torts Using proceedings in tort as a means of controlling global warming;*The scope of the duty of care and the relationship between the duty issue and the cause of harm; *Liability issues arising out of a biosecurity failure at New Zealand’s borders; *The direct liability of parent companies for the torts of their subsidiaries; *Visual intrusion into property as constituting a nuisance; *The ambit of the elements to vicarious liability. Todd on Torts is the definitive tort work for law students and practitioners. Its exemplary standards and authoritative reputation are both demonstrated by the fact that it is the book most frequently cited in decisions of the New Zealand Courts." --Publisher.
