Jonathan Herring is Professor of Law at Exeter College, University of Oxford. He is a widely published author across several disciplines, including criminal law, family law, medical law, and legal ethics.
I have recommended Criminal Law: Text, Cases, and Materials to my
students for 10 years now. I think it is the best criminal law
textbook on the market.
*Dr Kevin J. Brown, Senior Lecturer, Queen's University
Belfast*
The first port of call and the 'go to' reference for all
undergraduate law students. It is comprehensive and accessible.
*Kathryn Dutton, Associate Dean (Law and Policing), York St John
University*
A very good and comprehensive textbook. It has a clear and unique
style... It gives students that extra, theoretical information...
It has been on reading lists at every institution I have taught in,
and for a reason.
*Dr Laura Lammasniemi, Assistant Professor, University of Warwick*
