Shapo on the Law of Products Liability

Northwestern University School of Law professor Marshall S. Shapo’s seventh edition of Shapo on the Law of Products Liability (Edward Elgar Publishers) has been published.  It has now expanded to four volumes.

An authoritative, in-depth study of issues in products liability litigation, this comprehensive treatise traces the law of products liability from its roots in contract and tort to its development into the challenging, complex modern law of the subject.

“The book has been enriched by the many discussions in which I participated on that topic, both at Advisers’ meetings and on the floor of the Institute,” said Professor Shapo, who served as an Adviser on the Restatement of the Law Third, Torts: Products Liability.
