Why can an individual who was found not guilty in criminal court be made to pay damages in a tort case? What is administrative or regulatory law? And how and why are different facets of the legal system so complex, nuanced, and different from each other? Understanding Aspects of the Law: A Guide to Criminal, Tort, and Regulatory Law helps students better understand how the areas of criminal law, tort or personal injury law, and regulatory or administrative law function, as well as the strengths and shortcomings of each.

Additional chapters address criminal homicide, the insanity defense, the elements of a tort offense, the requirements for causation and proximate causation, product liability, and ultrahazardous activities. Students learn about the differences between criminal law and torts, environmental health laws, rights protection under administrative laws, sanctions, political pressures, and more.
