Tort Law offers discussions of case and statutory law in the three major areas of tort law: intentional torts, negligence, and strict liability. Updated annually, this volume covers:

Intent
Vicarious liability
Intentional infliction of emotional distress
Interference with business or family relationships
Abuse of power
Nuisance
Defamation
Wrongful death
Much more

You will find Kentucky decisions on which current law is based; law from other jurisdictions that can suggest deadlines in areas where there is little Kentucky authority; and laws from other jurisdictions.
