"Defamation Law is an outstanding work...as useful to the solicitor ... as it will be to counsel conducting a defamation trial or an appeal (and) to the appellate judge determining how a principle...should be applied to a novel situation. And it will be required reading for any reformer ... (It) combines the practical, theoretical, and historical (with) incisive insights...Dr Rolph (provides) an accessible but rigorous exposition of defamation law thereby demystifying this complex cause of action."
