Landmark Cases in the Law of Tort contains thirteen original essays
on leading tort cases, ranging from the early nineteenth century to
the present day. It is the third volume in a series of collected
essays on landmark cases (the previous two volumes having dealt
with restitution and contract). The cases examined raise a broad
range of important issues across the law of tort, including such
diverse areas as acts of state and public nuisance, as well as
central questions relating to the tort of negligence. Several of
the essays place cases in their historical context in ways that
change our understanding of the case's significance. Sometimes the
focus is on drawing out previously neglected aspects of cases which
have been - undeservedly - assigned minor importance. Other essays
explore the judicial methodologies and techniques that worked to
shape leading principles of tort law. So much of tort law turns on
cases, and there are so many cases, that all but the most recent
decisions have a tendency to become reduced to terse propositions
of law, so as to keep the subject manageable. This collection shows
how important it is, despite the constant temptation to
compression, not to lose sight of the contexts and nuances which
qualify and illuminate so many leading authorities.
