The Core Text Series provides students with reliable, concise, value-for-money coverage of key legal disciplines. Each title in the series seeks to strip its subject to the core - identifying the fundamental principles which underlie it and concentrating on the most important topics - while continuing to point out the intellectual challenges and difficulties within it. The result is a range of texts which take you straight to the heart of their subject matter by providing a succinct and reliable account of the current law. Written by leading academic authors, titles in the series are invaluable guides for students of law at all levels. Combining expert commentary with numerous case summaries, the author provides the students with a stimulating analysis of the key topics covered on undergraduate criminal law courses together with a concise exposition of recent academic commentary and current proposals for law reform.
