Products Liability and Safety, Cases and Materials 9th Edition David G. Owen ISBN 9798892099318

The Ninth Edition builds on and modernizes previous editions, retaining the vast majority of prior cases and materials while incorporating important new cases and legislative developments.

Reflecting emerging trends in the field, the Ninth Edition addresses the intersection of artificial intelligence and products liability, with updated discussions on electronic technology and social media applications. The reorganized automotive litigation chapter expands coverage of issues surrounding autonomous vehicles.

Additional new and updated content covers critical areas such as:

• Social media

• Artificial intelligence

• Federal preemption

• Toxic substances causation

• Prescription drugs and medical devices

Previous editions of this widely adopted casebook have been used at over 100 law schools, including Harvard, Yale, Penn, NYU, Michigan, Duke, Georgetown, William & Mary, and Texas. The Ninth Edition is suitable for both two- and three-hour courses, offering a contemporary and comprehensive approach to products liability law.
