OverviewThis new work is a clear account of the law of evidence as it applies in the uniform evidence law jurisdictions of NSW, the Commonwealth, the ACT and Tasmania. A significant feature of the book is that author Peter Bayne has integrated discussion of the provisions of the Uniform Acts with discussion of evidentiary principles. The result is a seamless analysis of the Uniform Evidence Law. Practitioners who work in uniform evidence law jurisdictions will find the seamless exposition of the Code and principle valuable. Teachers and students will value the fact that the expositon is augmented by extracts of essential cases. Bayne's practical teaching experience informs every aspect of the structure, content and approach of the discussion. Full Product DetailsAuthor: P. J.
