Law of Persons Sourcebook 6e

About this Publication:

Law of Persons Sourcebook, now in its sixth edition, was first published in 1995, just after the dawn of South Africa’s first democratic dispensation. This book is more than a casebook because it also contains extracts from statutes. Each entry is followed by comprehensive notes linking the quoted extracts with existing legal rules and other sources. In this way the legal rules are illustrated and explained while also using a problem-solving approach.
