The International Encyclopedia of Comparative Law, published in 17
volumes, is written by worldwide recognized leading specialists of
comparative law. 16 of these volumes are devoted to one large area of
private and commercial law, each of which is dealt with exclusively from
a comparative law perspective, whereas the first volume provides reports
on all the countries of the world, in alphabetical order, pertaining to
the same subjects. Volume XI (in two part volumes) of the International
Encyclopedia of Comparative Law is devoted to the general issues of tort
law. The fourteen chapters of this volume offer an introduction into the
law of tort, and deal with the prerequisites for liability, as well as
remedies, the various types of damages and procedural questions.
