Andrew Ashworth, Jeremy Horder. Principles of Criminal Law. , Oxford University Press, 2013.

For this seventh edition I am delighted to be joined by Professor Jeremy Horder. He has undertaken most of the revisions for this edition, and I am grateful to him for bringing his deep knowledge and understanding of the criminal law to bear on the text. There have been considerable developments both in the law and in scholarship in the four years since the last edition. Thus, for example, the homicide provisions of the Coroners and Justice Act 2009 have begun to be interpreted by the courts, and there have been substantial developments in the law on complicity. These and other changes have been taken into account, and it is hoped that statements of the law were correct at 1 December 2012.
