Now in its second edition, Australian Uniform Evidence Law provides a clear and accessible introduction to the law of evidence. Following the structure of the Evidence Act 1995 (Cth), the text first introduces students to basic principles, then covers more detailed and complex elements of evidence law in later chapters.
Cases and excerpts from the legislation have been carefully selected to guide students through the application of the Act in relevant jurisdictions. This edition has been thoroughly updated to include significant recent case examples and decisions, ensuring students learn about the law in its ever-changing context.
Each chapter includes a summary of key points, a list of key terms and definitions, and further reading suggestions, as well as practice questions to encourage students to apply their knowledge to realistic scenarios. The final chapter comprises longer-form, complex 'Putting it all together' practice problems that are designed to test students' understanding of the concepts and rules covered in the Act as a whole. Guided solutions to each question are also provided to ensure students can check their understanding.
Providing clear explanations and relevant examples, Australian Uniform Evidence Law is an essential foundational resource for all students of evidence law. |
