Synopsis

(A Practical Approach to Evidence first appeared in 1980, and its success in providing a readable and practical guide to the subject has been widely acknowledged not only by law teachers and students, but also by the profession.
The book is now firmly established as a leading text for use in universities and polytechnics, is recommended reading for students at the Bar, and is used by students for the Law Society Final examination. It has been selected for the British Council English Language Books Scheme.
This third edition deals with the many significant changes in the law of Evidence since the publication of the second edition in 1985, and includes a thorough analysis of the Criminal Justice Act 1988, and of important decisions such as that of the House of Lords in R v Hunt. The book provides a thematic treatment of the subject geared to its realities in practice and deals with the important issues raised.
The teaching method adopted in this book and in the companion volume Materials for Discussion by Peter Murphy and John Beaumont, has sparked a new trend in the teaching of Evidence and has proved both popular and effective.
Peter Murphy is a member of the English, California and Texas Bars. He was sometime Principal Lecturer in Evidence at the Inns of Court School of Law. He has taught and practiced extensively at the Bar both in England and the United States)
