Reviews for The Duty of Care in Negligence

Plunkett's book will prove a valuable guide to everyone involved in this area of law as to how we should approach duty of care issues in future. -- Nick McBride, Pembroke College, University of Cambridge * The Journal of Professional Negligence * Given that the law on duty of care is highly contested and performs a normative function, it is a testament to Plunkett's writing that I found myself agreeing with most of his arguments... I cannot recommend this thoroughly researched and elegantly written monograph highly enough. -- Craig Purshouse, School of Law, University of Leeds * Modern Law Review * This book would be of interest to practitioners, academics and the judiciary alike. Clearly written and cogently argued, this book succeeds in increasing its reader's understanding of this almost mystical concept. -- Val Corbett * Tort Law and Litigation Review *
