FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In honour of the work and writings of Professor John Bell, leading scholars present essays on factors affecting the course of legal development in common law and Civilian systems.

Offering an accessible pathway into understanding comparative law, the collection introduces the core features of understanding foreign legal systems. With a range of illustrative case studies, the essays explore topical problems and debates in tort, contract, legal history, and judicial studies. In a tribute to one of the defining legal scholars of our time, this volume draws a rich, nuanced picture of the object of comparative legal research, and indicates new and exciting avenues for further research.
