Clear, authoritative and detailed, Cross & Tapper on Evidence has, over successive editions, become firmly established as a classic of legal literature.

The thirteenth edition of this essential textbook reflects on all recent changes and developments in this fast-moving subject. In particular, it fully examines new case law relevant to evidence of privilege, character and hearsay.

The inclusion of some comparative material provides an excellent basis for the critical appraisal of English law. Cross & Tapper remains the definitive guide to the law of evidence, and is an indispensable resource for students and practitioners alike.
