Book excerpt: Connecting with Tort Law helps students to improve their analytical skills in tort law. It is divided into two parts. Part 1 is called 'Preparing for Success' and covers an overview of tort law and its challenges, and helps set students up for successful study in torts. It includes topics on legal argument, legal problem-solving and study strategies. Part 2 - 'The Torts' provides succinct summaries of the main torts covered in undergraduate law courses, as well as defences. Throughout these chapters the skills focus is maintained, with a selection of problem-solving tips and exercises to help students apply what they have learnt.
