This well structured and easy to navigate text provides up-to-date legislation, coupled with in-depth commentary and case law analysis. The new edition features detailed discussion of liability in the following contexts: powered mobile plants; commercial pressure from clients; liability of company directors; armed holdings; and situations of civil disorder.
