Dear Colleagues:

 

Congratulations go out to ODGer Stephen Todd, and his co-authors Cynthia Hawes, Ursula Cheer, and Bill Atkin, on the publication of the ninth edition of Todd on Tortshttps://store.thomsonreuters.co.nz/todd-on-torts-9th-edition/productdetail/129617.

 

From the description:

 

As in previous editions, the ninth edition of Todd on Torts seeks to explain and discuss the evolving law of torts in New Zealand and also to cover significant developments in the wider common law world. The pace of change in the law in recent years if anything has quickened, and certainly shows no signs of abating. Major new or rewritten topics include:

       The impact of tikanga M ori on the developing common law of torts

       Using proceedings in tort as a means of controlling global warming

       The scope of the duty of care and the relationship between the duty issue and the cause of harm

       Liability issues arising out of a biosecurity failure at New Zealand s borders

       The direct liability of parent companies for the torts of their subsidiaries

       Visual intrusion into property as constituting a nuisance.

       The ambit of the elements to vicarious liability

A host of new decisions examine these and many other interesting topics and fields of inquiry.

 

 

Happy Reading,

 

esig-law
