"A remarkable sociological and juridical work."--Revue Internationale de Droit Comparé

"Provide[s] a readable and comprehensive review of the tort law system, a review nonspecialists will find both comprehensible and interesting....Recommended for upper-division undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty."--Choice
