Scots Criminal Law (eBook)

Now in its second edition, Scots Criminal Law - A Critical Analysis provides a clear statement of the current law for students and practitioners, retaining the theoretical and critical focus of the first edition. It also considers what types of behaviours are subject to the criminal law sanction, and why. This new edition has been updated to reflect the redefined crimes of murder and breach of the peace, the broadened application of the necessity defence and the enactment of the Criminal Justice and Licensing (Scotland) Act 2010 and the Offensive Behaviour at Football and Threatening Communications (Scotland) Act 2012.
