Description

The 8th edition modernizes and enriches the previous edition. While retaining a great majority of prior cases and materials, it adds a number of important new cases and legislative developments, makes minor organizational enhancements, and adds depth to the most important sections. The 8th edition continues to stress developments in the evolving meaning of 鈥渄efectiveness鈥 and problems of proof鈥攂oth generally and arising from the Supreme Court鈥檚 Daubert v. Merrell Dow decision. The new edition includes new, updated, and enriched materials in such critical areas as:
  • Amazon鈥檚 liability for 鈥渟elling鈥 defective products
  • Defective medical devices
  • Federal preemption
  • Toxic substances causation
  • Automated vehicles
  • Computer software as a 鈥減roduct鈥
  • Human body parts as 鈥減roducts鈥
Previous editions of this classic casebook have been adopted at over 100 law schools, including Harvard, Yale, Penn, NYU, Michigan, Duke, Georgetown, William and Mary, and Texas. The 8th edition is well-suited for both two- and three-hour courses.
