"Professor David Ormerod is regarded as the quintessential 'practitioner's academic' for his pragmatism and ability to diffuse his intellectual arguments into sound practical principles." Simon McKay, Solicitor Advocate, Covert Policing Review 2005 "There is no criminal law textbook like it. Its detailed discussion of every offence from necrophilia to bomb hoaxes is without comparison. A student can be confident that if an offence is not dicussed in Smith and Hogan Criminal Law it is not likely to appear in an exam." Jonathan Herring, Times Higher Education Supplement
