Product description

For this edition, Brenda Midson and, new author, Terry Singh, have incorporated the recent amendments to the Evidence Act brought about by the Evidence Amendment Act 2016, removed cases that are no longer essential and added a more practical perspective, ensuring that Student Companion: Evidence continues to be relevant and useful to students.

This easy-to-use study guide is an invaluable reference tool for students, designed to be used in conjunction with lecture notes and existing text materials. Every book in our Student Companion series collects the key cases and presents the facts, the decisions, and the principles, in language you can understand.​
