Criminal Law - Third Edition
註釋

This is the third edition of the widely acclaimed textbook by Andrew Simester and Bob Sullivan. Criminal Law: Theory and Doctrine has established itself as the leading modern account of English criminal law, combining a detailed and authoritative exposition of the law with a careful exploration of its theoretical underpinnings. As such it is ideal for undergraduate teaching. It has also established itself as a major point of reference in academic writing, here and abroad, and has been cited in appellate courts throughout the world, including the House of Lords, the High Court of Australia, the Supreme Court of Canada, and the Special Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia.

In this edition, besides extensive updating, there is a new chapter on criminalisation as well as detailed new discussions of criminal damage and anti-social behaviour orders (ASBOs).

'This is probably the most significant book on criminal law to be published for many years, because it combines a high level of detail on the relevant cases and statutes with a searching examination of theoretical arguments that point directions for the development of law and legal doctrines...certainly sufficient for any undergraduate or postgraduate course. This is a carefully researched, well-written and balanced book, and a fine example of many of the best features of legal scholarship.'
Professor Andrew Ashworth. Law Quarterly Review

'...in this magisterial work on English Criminal law ... the authors have taken the art of textbook writing to a new level of sophistication... Simester and Sullivan's new book can without question be regarded as taking its place alongside the work of Williams, and of Smith and Hogan... and has been splendidly produced.'
Jeremy Horder, The Criminal Law Review

'Its breadth and depth of coverage, clarity of exposition and intellectual rigour, are all likely to make this book essential reading for many undergraduate and postgraduate criminal law students'
David WSelfe, The Law Teacher
