The latest edition has much to commend itself and undoubtedly will be of great use to practitioners and academics alike. Ian Gordon, NLJ Vol. 152, No. 7018, Feb 8, 2002 The very welcome second edition of this book provides the legal practitioner with a clear and considered analysis of the general impact of periods of limitation on civil litigation in England and Wales. In doing so, it builds on the success of the first edition of the book published in 1993, which was well received by practitioners and was extensively cited in Law Commission reports, and in cases coming before the courts. ... also contains an appendix of useful precedents, and of interest will be the book's treatment of the Law Commission's proposals in various areas of limitation.
