The philosophy of Connecting with Tort Law Second Edition is that everyone learns best by doing, but that we often need a guide that can show us by example. Connecting with Tort Law helps students to improve their analytical skills in tort law through practical application.

It is divided into two parts: Part 1 Preparing for Success covers an overview of tort law and its challenges. It sets students up for successful study in torts. It includes topics on legal argument, legal problem-solving and study strategies. Students will learn how to work effectively as a torts student, how to argue like a torts lawyer, how to analyse problem questions and torts cases, and how to identify issues and structure an answer to a torts problem. 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 and build on the skills introduced in Part 1.
