  The Second Edition of this highly successful book builds on the First Edition to provide a clear explanation of criminal law and has been updated throughout. As well as setting out the law itself, the authors examine some of the principles behind it, and discuss current issues and debates. The book has been written with the needs of A-level and undergraduate law students particularly in mind, but will be ideal also as a highly accessible text for the more general reader interested in the subject.
