In the past, most books in the series have focused on English law, but recent publications include books on European law, globalisation, transnational legal processes, and comparative law. They are written primarily for undergraduate and graduate students of law and of other disciplines, but most also appeal to a wider readership. The series includes original books that have a different emphasis from traditional legal textbooks, while maintaining the same high standards of scholarship. It is hoped that this orientation is at once more stimulating and more realistic than the bare exposition of legal rules. A contextual approach involves treating legal subjects broadly, using materials from other social sciences, and from any other discipline that helps to explain the operation in practice of the subject under discussion. The series particularly aims to publish scholarly legal writing that brings fresh perspectives to bear on new and existing areas of law taught in universities. It has been a vehicle for the publication of innovative scholarly books that treat law and legal phenomena critically in their social, political and economic contexts from a variety of perspectives. The Law in Context Series Editors: William Twining (University College London) and Christopher McCrudden (Lincoln College, Oxford) Since 1970 the Law in Context series has been in the forefront of the movement to broaden the study of law. His published writings range widely over topics in tort law, contract law, legal history and legal theory and include The Sale of Goods (11th edition with J N Harpers and H L McQueen, 2005), The Rise and Fall of Freedom of Contract (1985) and The Damages Lottery (1997). Until his early retirement in 1988 he was Professor of English Law at Oxford University. Patrick Atiyah is one of the leading common lawyers of his generation. Recent publications include Responsibility in Law and Morality (2002) and The Oxford Handbook of Legal Studies (edited with Mark Tushnet) (2003). His main research interests are in the law of obligations, especially tort law public law, especially administrative law and legal theory.
For twenty years previously he taught law at Corpus Christi College Oxford. Peter Cane has been Professor of Law in the Research School of Social Sciences at the Australian National University since 1997. New statistics on tort claims are discussed, providing fresh insights into the evolution of the tort system which, despite recent reforms, remains deeply flawed and ripe for radical reform. Complaints that Britain is a ‘compensation culture’ suffering an ‘insurance crisis’ are investigated.
Most significantly, it examines developments affecting the financing and conduct of personal injury claiming: the abolition of legal aid for most personal injury claims the increasing use of conditional fee agreements and after-the-event insurance the meteoric rise and impending regulation of the claims management industry. The seventh edition of this classic work explores recent momentous changes in personal injury law and practice and puts them into broad perspective. Since its first publication, Accidents, Compensation and the Law has been recognised as the leading treatment of the law of personal injuries compensation and the social, political and economic issues surrounding it.
