Clarkson and Keating: Criminal Law: Text and Materials:-
Examines the main principles and rules of criminal law and explores the theoretical bases upon which they are founded in an easily digestible text
Combines the best features of a standard “textbook” with those of a “cases and materials” book to provide guidance and direction on the law, whilst presenting
a substantial amount of key primary material selected from a diversity of sources
Includes extracts from cases and academic articles, carefully edited to make them accessible to students
Draws on non-legal contextual material to provide a social context to the law rather than a mere analysis of the rules
NEW TO THIS EDITION:-
An examination of hate crime offences
Discussion of the increased focus on restorative justice
Developments in case law, including cases on causation (Hughes) assisted
suicide and necessity (Nicklinson), loss of control (Clinton; Asmelash), participation and transferred malice (Gnango)
Legislation updates, including amendments to the law on self-defence.
