The law of evidence plays an indispensable role in the administration of justice. It is only through reliable, relevant, and admissible evidence that substantive rights may be established in a court of law. The courts have, over the yearspainstakingly analysed and interpreted different forms of evidence-written, oral and electronic-in their effort to arriveat the right conclusions. Recent judgments may be seen to be aids for Parliament in amending existing legislation and informulating new provisions in consonance with the times.Ratanlal & Dhirajlal’s Law of Evidence is one of the country’s most relied on and respected titles and has been in print foralmost a century. The sheer fact that the book has gone through many editions, stands testimony to its intrinsic worthand scholastic wealth.

This book is invaluable for trial lawyers-civil and criminal, advanced studentsof law, forensic sciences, criminology, gender studies and human rights.
