Thomson's Delictual Liability is a highly respected account of the principles of delict in Scots law and is the go-to introductory textbook on the subject.

The Seventh Edition has been substantially updated and comprehensively restructured to meet the contemporary needs of LLB students and practitioners. It includes:

- New and expanded chapters on the duty of care, separately considering psychiatric harm, pure economic loss, the liability of public authorities, and novel situations
- A new chapter on prescription and limitation, and a new discrete chapter on vicarious liability, to reflect the practical significance of both topics
- Significant recent case law, including Moray Offshore Renewable Power Ltd v BlueFloat Energy UK Holdings Ltd and Roche Diagnostics Ltd v Greater Glasgow Health Board on the economic delicts, Coulter v Anderson, Anderson and Brown LLP on pure economic loss, and McCulloch v Forth Valley Health Board on medical negligence

This title provides an exceptionally clear and direct pathway through a complicated area of Scots law. It stands as an invaluable text for LLB students and practitioners alike.

This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's online services - Scottish Law Service, Scots Law Online and Scots Law Student Service.
