Choo's Evidence provides students with a lucid account of the core principles of the law of evidence in England and Wales, whilst also exploring the fundamental rationales that underlie the law as a whole.

This clear and engaging text explores current debates and draws on different jurisdictions to achieve a fascinating mix of critical and thought-provoking analysis for students and practitioners alike. Where appropriate, the author draws on comparative material and a variety of socio-legal, empirical, and non-legal material. Thorough footnoting and further reading lists provide valuable signposting to a wealth of additional sources.
