This edition of David Price's text provides a clear and practical guide to the law and practice of defamation.

This edition considers the many recent changes in the law and practice, including new case law under the Defamation Act 1996 and the implications of the new defamation pre-action protocol. It also contains three chapters on defamation and the CPR, the Internet, and the the Human Rights Act 1998 respectively.
