Descriere
The language of duress and necessity is found in crime, tort and contract. This book explores those pleas, in both case law and theory, across subject boundaries, and across jurisdictions. It seeks to identify the lessons which each area of law can learn from the others, and to tease out common themes while demarcating important differences.
