Description
Tort Law: Responsibilities and Redress 6th Edition John C. P. Goldberg ISBN 9798892075022
Tort Law: Responsibilities and Redress, Sixth Edition presents tort law as a complex yet coherent field, thoughtfully organized to be both sophisticated and highly accessible. Widely adopted by law schools across the country, this casebook consistently receives high praise from faculty and students for its contemporary, relevant cases, in-depth notes, and its unmatched 500+ page comprehensive Teacher’s Manual.
The Sixth Edition has been fully updated to reflect the latest developments in tort law, including emerging civil rights issues—particularly excessive force claims against law enforcement—public nuisance, toxic torts, and new draft provisions from the Third Restatement of Torts: Intentional Torts to Persons. The text is designed to engage students actively with “Check Your Understanding,” “Big Think,” and “Did You Know?” boxes, and features a user-friendly layout. In addition, adopters have access to a robust set of PowerPoint slides covering all principal cases, ideal for classroom instruction.

-
Rental returns: free at semester's end, prorated if early
Print a prepaid return label from your account whenever you have finished with the book, and drop it at the carrier listed on the label. Returning it by your semester return date, or after it is already overdue, is free with no deduction. Returning it early, before that date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund.
-
Purchase returns: 15% restocking fee
Purchases can be returned within 30 days in the condition you received. We will email a prepaid return label; once we receive your book, we refund the purchase price minus the 15% restocking fee and the return label cost. Original shipping is non-refundable.
-
Shipping costs calculated at checkout
Real-time rates are quoted at checkout based on your address and the books in your cart. Returning your book by your semester date is always free; an early return deducts the restocking fee and label cost from your refund instead.
Rental Terms
Return by December 28, 2026 for Fall 2026 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, before your semester return date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund, the same as cancelling a shipped rental for a refund.
- 30-Day Cancellation
- Changed your mind? Cancel an active rental within 30 days of your order from My Account → My Rentals. Cancel before your book ships and it’s free; once it has shipped, 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.
