It sets out a new and theoretically stimulating analysis of the law of tort, in which the subject is reconceived as a system of ethical rules and principles of personal responsibility.  As such it can be viewed as a series of relationships between protected interests, sanctioned conduct and sanctions. These are the \"building blocks\" of tort law. Beyond affording a means of comprehending the fragmentary nature of tort law, the book, equally importantly, seeks to develop understanding of its relationship with other areas of the law of obligations. It also permits clearer understanding of the relationship between common law and statutory torts and throws fresh light on the links between tort law and its functions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“...Cane is sweet reasonableness throughout . . .Cane says, and shows, that there is much to be learnt by unpacking the various torts and reorganising their elements under the headings of plaintiff's interest, defendant's conduct and what the law does about it...admirably written.. in an easy loping style...very welcome.” —\u003ci\u003eCambridge Law Journal\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“…the book stands as a statement of an approach to the subject of tort favoured by one of the leading scholars working in the field.
