Summary, etc. The new edition of this successful Concise College Text on Criminal Law has been carefully designed to give the student a bird's eye view of what the subject is about. Rather than discussing general principles first and then going on to deal with specific offences, the author begins by describing one offence murder-in detail, with examples drawn from particular cases. This offence and what is learnt about it is then used to illustrate and clarify the general principles of law applicable to all crimes. This innovative approach is designed to help the student grasp the complex relationships between general principles and specific crimes. The recent decision of the House of Lords in Moloney is covered, and the law relating to mens rea in murder cases is fully digested, as too is the decision of the House of Lords in Ryan relating to attempting the impossible. Subjects covered include:<br/><br/>• Murder<br/>Actus reus and mens rea; the ingredients of a crime<br/>Strict liability<br/>Parties to criminal offences<br/>General defences<br/>The inchoate offences<br/>* Unlawful homicide<br/>• Non-fatal offences against the person including sexual offences<br/>• Offences under the Theft Acts Criminal damage to property<br/>This lively introduction to a core subject will be welcomed by all those embarking on the study of criminal law, whether students, students taking law as a subsidiary subject, or lay magistrates.
