Products Liability, Fifth Edition is a very well-recognized book that addresses developments in relation to class actions, punitive damages, restitutionary damages, causation, and economic loss. Product liability raises legal questions of great theoretical and growing practical importance, especially in view of the legislation in several provinces facilitating class proceedings.

The subject cuts across several legal categories, involving concepts of negligence, strict liability, warranty, and public policy. This book by renowned legal scholar Stephen M. Waddams, examines these concepts and their practical application in their historical context, considers their development in other jurisdictions, and sets out the current state of Canadian law. This text will be useful for academics and indispensable for practitioners in the field.
