In this collection, expert authors place leading cases in criminal law in their historical and legal contexts, highlighting their significance both in the past and for the present.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe cases in this volume range from the fifteenth to the twenty-first century. Many of them are well known to modern criminal lawyers and students; others are overlooked landmarks that deserve reconsideration. The essays, often based on extensive and original archival research, range over a wide spectrum of criminal law, covering procedure and doctrine, statute and common law, individual offences and general principles. Together, the essays explore common themes, including the scope of criminal law and criminalisation, the role of the jury, and the causes of change in criminal law.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhilip Handler is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Law at the University of Manchester. \u003cbr\u003eHenry Mares is John Thornely Fellow, and Director of Studies in Law at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge. \u003cbr\u003eIan Williams is a Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Laws at University College London.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 384\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.79 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 19, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47430866436274,"sku":"9781509932153","price":122.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/f654a9ab18d6259ca2ca5ae9fb2b3bd9.webp?v=1778578614","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/landmark-cases-in-criminal-law-paperback","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
