•   Use of problems (with model answers for teachers) to facilitate learning and application;

•   Variety of negligence duty issues to select from for classroom focus;

•   Balanced presentation of alternative points of view;

•   Inclusion of substantive and damages issues reflecting the diversity of U.S. society;

•   Summary of contents at the beginning of each chapter to help students keep the concepts in focus;

•   Boxed outline summaries and flow charts to facilitate learning;

The Third Edition of Tort Law and Practice represents the authors' continued efforts to humanize the subject matter of torts and to include issues reflecting the diversity of our society where relevant. Thus, the book includes cases that raise tort law issues of race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, and social class where appropriate. The authors also raise important ethical issues at various points throughout the book. The comprehensive Teacher's Manual provides insights to the analysis of the cases, suggested teaching techniques, and model answers to the many problems in the casebook.

The accompanying Teacher's Manual provides insights to the analysis of the cases, suggested teaching techniques, and model answers to the many problems in the casebook.
