Description
  • Each question is accompanied by author commentary, an answer plan, and a full suggested answer, offering a complete guide to each topic

  • Commentaries and bullet-pointed summaries of each answer can be used on their own to summarise a topic, or students can use this framework to write their own answer, making this book particularly versatile and allowing it to be used at all stages of revision
  • Summary of each topic at the beginning of every chapter provides a useful overview of each area, reminding students of salient points as they revise for exams
  • Further reading sections at the end of each chapter allow students to extend their knowledge of each topic, providing a platform to further study
OUP's Law Questions and Answers series gives students the opportunity to practise their exam techniques and evaluate and assess their progress. This new edition of Q&A Law of Torts has been fully revised to offer comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of all the essential aspects of the law. The ideal revision aid, it is divided into chapters covering each major topic, and contains around fifty questions and full answers designed to test even the best prepared student. The book opens with a dedicated chapter on study skills, explaining how to answer both essay and problem type questions in the examination, as well as how to tackle coursework. Each chapter contains an introduction focusing on important legal aspects and summarising points of interest. After each question there is a commentary which highlights the essential elements and indicates exactly what the examiners are looking for. Every commentary is followed by a bullet-pointed answer plan illuminating key points to provide students with instant confidence.
