From the Foreword by The Rt Hon. Lord Cullen PC, LordJustice-Clerk The Scots law of delict encompasses a vast array of legal sourcesand contradictions many elements are modern and highly developedwhile others remain ancient and obscure. The majority of delictualprinciples are caselaw driven and yet, increasingly, legislationplays a part. Further, although the concept of delict is limited tothe Scottish jurisdiction, private international law cannot beignored.

Illustrated throughout withnumerous explanatory case studies, and featuring key questionsafter each chapter which act as a useful aid to comprehension, thisis essential reading for all students encountering delict for thefirst time as well as practitioners who require a ready referencefor their practice.Product Identifiers
