Description

The Modern Law of Torts A Contemporary Approach Second Edition Douglas Lee Donoho

ISBN: 9781531034795

The Modern Law of Torts offers a distinctive approach to teaching tort law by combining substantive legal doctrine with practical skills development. Rather than relying primarily on edited cases, each chapter features extensive narrative explanations, illustrations, and instructional guidance. Clearly defined learning objectives are followed by organized assignments and problems that reinforce the material. Recent cases are incorporated to demonstrate how legal principles apply in common situations, highlight doctrinal challenges, and provide a foundation for solving practical problems. Students are encouraged to use cases as tools for analyzing and resolving problems rather than simply as sources of legal rules.

The coursebook emphasizes practical preparation through frequent real-world insights, practice-oriented exercises, and a wide range of problems and formative assessments. Its instructional approach follows a gradual progression, beginning with fundamental concepts before advancing to more complex and nuanced issues. This structure helps students develop sophisticated analytical skills while building a thorough understanding of the interconnected rules governing tort law.

The second edition further improves the learning experience by simplifying and clarifying the text, adding new cases and problems, and presenting several complex areas of tort doctrine in a more cohesive and accessible manner.

Rental Terms

Return by May 25, 2027 for Spring 2027 rentals.

Late Fees: Books returned after the semester deadline accrue a weekly late fee of about 10% of the book's Brand New price, for each copy that is overdue. The rent you have already paid counts toward the book's replacement value (its Brand New price), so late fees stop once your rent plus late fees reach it. That replacement value is the most a rental can ever cost you. We email a reminder 48 hours before any charge, and any late fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout.
Damage Fees: Books returned damaged beyond normal classroom wear may be assessed a damage fee, capped at the book's replacement value (its Brand New price). Any damage fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout after we inspect the returned book.
Return Shipping: Returning your book is free with no deduction if it reaches us by your semester return date, or after it's already overdue. Print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page. Returning it early and shipping it back within 30 days of your order date gets you a refund minus a 15% restocking fee and the label cost. After 30 days, an early return is free, with no refund.
30-Day Refund Window: Changed your mind? Cancel before your book ships and it’s free: open the order under My Account → Orders and click Cancel next to the book. Once it has shipped, you can return a rental for a refund from My Account → My Rentals. To qualify, the book must be shipped back within 30 days of your order date. We refund the rental price minus a 15% restocking fee and the return label cost, released once we receive your book. Shipping is non-refundable. A rental shipped back after 30 days is a regular end-of-semester return, with no refund.
