A well-established, clear and comprehensive survey of Scots family law and this book is of practical use to practitioners and students alike.

The eighth edition includes all recent legislative changes including the Children and Young Persons (Scotland) Act 2014 and the Domestic Abuse (Scotland) Act 2018.
