Publisher's Synopsis
Designed for students who may not have ready access to a law library, and for students on part-time and distance learning courses, the Sourcebook series offers a collection of material from a diversity of sources. The sources are annotated to set the materials in context and to explain their relevance and importance.;The author of this textbook uses case law rather than legislation to interpret linguistic uncertainties in the study of criminal law. The subject matter follows the traditional syllabuses of most English universities, and can therefore be used as a revision aid.
