Paperback Edition: 9
Ross on Crime Ninth Edition is a unique, renowned and indispensable point of reference for all criminal law practitioners.
It covers more than 350 terms and principles relating to criminal law practice in an easy-to-use A-to-Z format. As well as a succinct statement of the law on a particular subject, there is a summary of the leading case law in the area.

Over 20 new High Court cases;
Legislative and case law developments relating to the human rights charters;
Elaboration relating to the application of privilege in criminal cases;
Clarification of the prosecutors duty of fairness;
A discussion of the judges role in summing up to the jury;
