The second edition of this book provides an accessible, well-structured, compact yet detailed presentation and critical analysis of the law of evidence applicable in the Australian uniform evidence jurisdictions. Written by an expert team of practitioners and academics, the commentary takes readers beyond legal principles and case law to deliver a working understanding of the current operation of the law.

Designed for easy navigation of the key areas of evidence law, each chapter is set out in a logical and accessible manner. The authors discuss the practical operation of the legislative regime in the wider legal context, particularly within the trial structure. It presents succinct explanations of the underlying principles, an assessment of their success as enacted and, where relevant, explores the future direction in which they may be developed. The complexities within each aspect of the law, as well as conflicting decisions and approaches, are addressed. It is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand Australia’s uniform evidence regime.

The new edition has been fully revised and updated to include recent developments in case law and legislation, including legislative developments in the law of tendency and coincidence evidence concerning child sexual abuse cases in some uniform evidence jurisdictions.
