About this eBook
Written by one of the leading experts in the field, Criminal Law is the ideal companion for undergraduate and postgraduate students looking for an accessible, engaging and concise introduction to criminal law. Covering the basic principles of criminal liability, it specifically highlights the criminal offences which not only best illustrate the underlying criminal law principles, but also feature most heavily on substantive criminal law modules.
In this new 13th edition, violence against women has been highlighted as a key theme, covering changes to the Domestic Violence Act 2021 and interesting developments in the “rough sex defence”; defences to criminal damage, causation, and the new offence of strangulation and consent in abusive relationships.
A perfect combination of underlying theory and contemporary debates and controversies, this text is the one-stop shop for all students determined to excel in their coursework and exams, as well as in legal practice.
