This third edition has been expanded to cover the field of civil evidence alongside its traditional criminal focus. It has also been thoroughly revised and updated to take into account recent developments in the law and the considerable amount of case law that has emerged since publication of the previous edition. This edition includes a new chapter structure, with new chapters on the adversarial trial and suspect evidence.
Updated features include
self test questions and advice on further reading at the end of each chapter
key learning points which summarise the chapter as well as highlighting the most important issues
New and updated chapters on topics such as adversarial trial, witnesses and suspect evidence.
Addressing the evolving case law on subjects such as hearsay and bad character which were overhauled in the Criminal Justice Act 2003, this book is an essential purchase for anyone studying evidence law.
