John Spencer has worked at Cambridge University for over 40 years. He has lectured, supervised - and entertained - students in tort law, contract law, medical law, criminal law, criminal procedure, and evidence.

The selected case notes provide a master-class in the writing of incisive, engaging notes. Written with students in mind, but also intended for a wider audience, these case notes epitomize the way in which Professor Spencer has, for 43 years, cajoled, lambasted, and encouraged the judiciary to see things his way.
