Description

"[A] wide-ranging exploration of the doctrine, theories, and policies underlying modern products liability law. It reviews many important cases in this area. Shapo assesses economic and empirical studies and reviews the recent scholarship -- and not so scholarly -- criticisms of products liability law. He also evaluates legislative and administrative proposals for reform... The book is clear, well written, and easy to read. The author clarifies difficult concepts without oversimplifying them." -- Trial
