Product Description

Product Description
As the successor to Smith & Wood's Industrial Law, this work continues its predecessor's reputation for both comprehensive coverage and lucidity of presentation. With a new and improved structure and layout, the ninth edition maps closely onto employment law courses and provides an invaluable resource for students. Individual topics are presented in a logical framework, allowing students to analyse and understand what can initially appear to be an intimidatingly diverse and complex area of the law. Thoroughly revised and updated and covering all the major developments in the subject since the eighth edition, it includes the standard disciplinary and grievance procedure, the 2006 Transfer of Undertakings, the new TUPE Regulations and age discrimination. Online Resource Centre A new Online Resource Centre providing twice-yearly updates to changes and developments in the law accompanies this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, would recommend to all employment law students, 14 Jul 2008
Smith & wood's employment law is well written, interesting and not at all boring as the other review would suggest.
I used this book and only this book in my degree and got a 2.1. Some areas of employment law can be quite dry but that is no fault of the book. To gain the high grades you have to be prepared to do the reading and this book is extremely thorough, the writers' passion for the subject really shines through and makes it an interesting read.
The subjects are set out clearly. But if you are someone who likes bulletpoints and pretty diagrams etc then buy a nutshells book, but dont expect to get a good degree!
I will also be using this book for my masters degree in employment law.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good on detail, 20 Feb 2009
I'm currently taking my first ever Labour law course as I'd so far managed to escape the disconnected unimplemented contradictory confusing and ever changing regulatory myriad governing this field. A number of texts were either badly written (lacking coherence, too much on what the law should be, too little on what it is) or basic, and I decided to get this after reading reviews and searching inside. This clearly explains what i need to know at this level, without the irrelevant commentary present in most texts. I'd recommend this to fellow labour law newbies on the LLB but its still appropriate for higher level programmes (I'm studying for an LLM).

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the most comprehensive Employment Law texts, 20 Dec 2008
By A. J. Batchelor (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am currently at university reading employment law at postgraduate level, and this book is one of the set texts for my course. Unlike one of the other reviewers, I think this book is extremely accessible in its style and, also, comprehensive in its coverage of the subject matter. If you're studying employment law at postgraduate level, this is one of the few employment law textbooks that is written for Master's level students. (Another excellent text is Deakin & Morris Labour Law, however a new edition is desperately needed as the most recent (4th) edition was published in 2005). Therefore, Smith & Thomas is a more up-to-date choice and contains chapters on the new TUPE Regs 2006 and Age Regs 2006.

1.0 out of 5 stars Truly the most inaccessible law text book
Everything about this book is designed to make learning employment law a chore. From the poor layout and structure to the unengaging style of writing, this is certainly a text to... Read more
