.............................................................................................................................DescriptionThe book, besides discussing the general principles of tortious liability, capacity of parties and specific torts which one may come across in every book on torts, has separate chapters on foreign torts, right of privacy and injury to servitudes, thus giving new dimensions to the subject of torts. This book is scrupulously researched and well written. It is a meritorious contribution to the study of law of torts. It is highly recommended to all concerned as a valuable treatise on the subject and a valuable addition to the existing literature - Delhi Law ReviewThe book is extensive in scope and the author evinces a tangible fascination for his subject1 Even given the fairly frequent references to foreign jurisprudence, this work remains predominantly Indian both in emphasis and content, and the sheer volume of Indian case law examined means that the book must prove valuable to anyone requiring an Indian perspective on tort law - Malaya Law ReviewThe important feature of this book is the discussion |ubject-wise and thereafter important phrases are also given and that too with details and with case law - Gujrat Law ReporterThe book has an exhaustive subject index for easy reference. The book is of immense use not only to students of law but also to the practising lawyers.
