Tort law

This work is the complete version of the "Casebook on Tort Law", part of which was published in 1998 under the title "Tort Law: Scope of Protection".

Additional subjects covered in this book include the tort/contract divide, causation, remedies, fault and unlawfulness, liability for others, and liability not based on fault as well as defences.

It is part of the "Casebooks for the Common Law of Europe" series, developed for use throughout Europe and aimed at those who teach, learn or practise law with a comparative or European perspective.

Readers should find leading cases, legislation and other materials from the legal traditions within Europe, with focus on English, French and German law as the main representatives of those traditions.

Materials are chosen and ordered so as to foster comparative study, and complemented with annotations and comparative overviews prepared by a multinational team.
