Thomson's Delictual Liability, Seventh Edition, is a highly respected account of the principles of delict in Scots law. It is the standard introductory textbook on the subject.
The seventh edition of this popular text has been updated thoroughly. It provides a clear and straightforward guide through this complex area of Scots Law. While retaining the book's established style, the authors have made significant structural and thematic changes to enhance its relevance to the LLB course and to the issues that frequently arise in practice.
This edition features several key improvements. It now includes expanded chapters on the duty of care, including separate treatment of psychiatric harm, pure economic loss, the liability of public authorities, and novel situations. Separate consideration is also given to the topics of vicarious liability and prescription and limitation, reflecting the practical importance of these topics. Recent case law has been incorporated into each chapter, with some chapters undergoing substantial revisions to reflect modern developments.
