Review from previous edition This textbook has rightly earned its reputation as a cornerstone of the modern criminal law course. Rigorous, engaging, and accessibly written, and the enhanced content of the e-book has rendered it even more helpful, engaging and interactive for teachers and students alike. * Dr Barbara Hughes-Moore, Lecturer in Law, Cardiff University *
