Synopsis

The legal principles and rules involved in the study of criminal law are often complex and technical. It is therefore essential that students have a clear and comprehensive account of the law to guide their study. For generations Smith and Hogan has fulfilled that need.

Smith and Hogan Criminal Law: Cases and Materials provides the necessary materials - cases, statutes, reports, book extracts and articles - for an in-depth study of the general principles of criminal law. Introductory notes and commentary link the materials enabling the reader to gain an insight
into the problems that may arise.

The ideal partner to the Smith and Hogan Criminal Law textbook, this book provides a complete guide to the study of criminal law. This ninth edition has been updated to incorporate new legislation including the Sexual Offences Act 2003 and relevant new case law.
