Criminal law

This work is written with the needs of the student foremost in mind.

This edition is brought up to date in the light of changes in statute and case law since the last edition, eg. offences against the person, crime, disorder and theft.

"Smith on Theft" is an established standard work and gives a detailed and critical account of the law of theft and related offences. It contains narrative commentary based on the 1968 and 1978 Theft Acts which is followed by the full texts of the statutes with extensive cross-references to the commentary. The 7th edition takes account of the many changes, particularly case law, since the previous one appeared in 1989.

The law of theft

Butterworths

Smith and Hogan: Criminal Law provides a detailed and critical exposition of the general principles of criminal liability and the law of the most important crimes. This new edition has been made more digestible by dividing some of the longer chapters. It has been fully revised and takes account of recent very important case law, particularly the decisions of the House of Lords in B (a minor) and K (strict liability), Morgan Smith (provocation) and Hinks (theft). It includes statutory changes, particularly those made by the Sexual Offences (Amendment) Act 2000 and the--so far slight-- impact of the Human Rights Act 1998 on the substantive criminal law.

SWEET MAXWELL

This casebook for students of the law of contract, now in its tenth edition, features substantial extracts from the most significant recent legal decisions as well as the relevant statutes, with notes, questions and problems. It is fully revised and updated.

Smith and Thomas: a Casebook on Contract

This book provides a clear and concise account of the general principles of the law of contract. It is an excellent introduction to the subject, giving the reader an overall view which, for some will be all that is required and for others is an essential basis for the more detailed study of particular aspects of the law. It is also a valuable tool for revision, enabling the student quickly to recall and put in context the essentials of the subject. The book does not over-simplify the law, but explores areas of doubt and difficulty and offers reasoned criticism of controversial decisions. The major change in this edition is the incorporation of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 which makes important changes to a central aspect of the law of contract. The relation of the Act to the existing rules of common law and equity is fully explored. Account is also taken of recent case law on offer and acceptance, implied terms, damages and undue influence. The book is cross-referenced to the author's eleventh edition of Smith & Thomas, a Casebook on Contract which provides extracts from nearly all the leading cases together with notes and questions. Taken together, the two books provide the necessary materials for an advanced study of the subject.
