Blackstone's statutes on contract, tort & restitution - F. D Rose

"Blackstone's Statute Books" are designed specifically to provide students with a collection of statutes for use throughout their course, and now cover all the main law subjects.;The series has been produced following careful research of the syllabuses of most law courses. As a result, the authors have been able to produce a concise collection of relevant statutes, eliminating some of the non-essential material and concentrating on the more important statutes. As many courses move towards allowing statute books to be taken into examinations, this series should be suitable for that purpose.;This edition includes recently enacted statutory material on the three central areas of civil liability, namely contract, tort and restitution. It includes a number of amendments to existing legislation, together with the Damages Act 1996 and the Defamation Act 1996.;A particular feature of this book is the addition of a new section on codes, containing the Commission on European Contract Law's "Principles of European Contract Law", Unidroit's "Principles of International Commercial Law" and "Draft Rules on Unjustified Enrichment", all of which are important pointers of possible directions for future practical developments in the area of civil liability.;Nicholas Rose is the general editor of "Lloyd's Maritime and Commercial Law Quarterly" and the "Restitution Law Review".
