Publisher's Synopsis
"Blackstone's Statute Books" have been designed specifically to provide students with a collection of statutes for use throughout their course, and now cover all the main law subjects.;The series has been produced following careful research of the syllabuses of most law courses. As a result, the authors have been able to produce a concise collection of relevant statutes, eliminating some of the non-essential material and concentrating on the more important statutes. As many courses move towards allowing statute books to be taken into examinations, this series should prove useful for that purpose.;This edition on evidence has been updated to cover all recent legislation, including the Criminal Appeal Act 1995, the Civil Evidence Act 1995, the Criminal Procedure and Investigations Act 1996 and the Code of Practice made under Part II of that Act, together with statutory amendments enacted by the Police Act 1996.
