This Ninth Edition contains extensive updates, with new cases relevant for students anxious to acquire practical knowledge that can be quickly put to use when they enter the profession. To use one example, Chapter 5, that deals with liability insurance, adds substantial new text on the duty to defend, including the Texas Supreme Court’s 2020 decision in Richards v. State Farm Lloyds. Chapter 5 also augments its coverage of multi-insurer allocation of liability with the addition of the California Supreme Court’s 2020 decision in Montrose Chemical Corp. of California v. Superior Court. Chapter 5 also has numerous new notes on almost every aspect of liability insurance. In addition to new cases, the Ninth Edition has been edited to add notes dealing with a variety of cutting-edge issues. This edition also incorporates numerous references to the American Law Institute’s Restatement of the Law of Liability Insurance. References to the Restatement are not confined to Chapter 5 inasmuch as the Restatement addresses a few subjects that lie beyond the confines of pure liability insurance issues. In short, the Ninth Edition brings students and instructors up to date.

International Human Rights and their Enforcement in Africa
Sh 2,400.00The main objective and purpose of this book therefore is to underscore the challenges besetting the effective enforcement of international human rights law in Africa and the prospects and promises of an effective regional human rights system. The book, a revised and updated version of my earlier book entitled The African System on Human and Peoples’ Rights: Its Promises, Prospects and Pitfalls, captures succinctly the recent developments of the system, since the publication of its predecessor. This is done with the understanding that the African human rights system is gradually progressing, despite the fact that it is not only the least developed but also the least effective as compared with its American and European counterparts.

Employment Law Guide for Employers
Sh 1,665.00The Industrial Court does in its endeavour to interpret the various sections of labour statutes. However, majority of these guidelines have not been made accessible to employers in a manner that is easily and properly understood and appreciated. This is because, even though there is an attempt to avail the decisions of the Industrial Court to the general public, the ratios and the guidelines thereof have not been analyzed in a short, concise and easier manner. This book seeks to address this gap by focusing on the realist perspective.
