This edition includes explanation and analysis of new Restatement (Third) Intentional Tort provisions including battery, assault, false imprisonment, and transferred intent as well as proposed new Intentional Economic Tort provisions. The text also includes United States Supreme Court developments limiting punitive damages and other new case law"--
