South Carolina Damages, Second Edition is the only book of its kind in South Carolina and is co-authored by more than sixty of South Carolina's most outstanding judges, attorneys, and law professors, including former Chief Justice Jean Hoefer Toal, Judge Karen L. Henderson, Judge G. Ross Anderson Jr., Judge P. Michael Duffy, Justice Kaye G. Hearn, practicing attorneys Wallace Lightsey, Allen Gibson, John E. Parker, Fayrell Furr, Richard Rosen, professors John P. Freeman, Ralph McCullough, and Randy Bridwell, and many more of South Carolina's finest legal minds. 

Fully updated since publication of the first edition in 2004 and written with the practicing attorney in mind, this cutting-edge book will provide practical and scholarly insights and coverage of virtually every important aspect of damages law in South Carolina. Covering not only the theory and policy behind damages law, the book also includes comprehensive discussion and analysis of compensatory damages in personal injury and property torts, contract damages, and punitive damages, but also more than thirty individual chapters on everything from damages in anti-trust and automobile wreck cases to wrongful death and wrongful discharge and virtually everything in between! Truly, this is a book that every South Carolina attorney, whether plaintiff or defense, should have on his or her shelf. 
 
Included with your purchase of South Carolina Damages, Second Edition is the 2017 Supplement. The 2017 Supplement includes significant cases decided after 2009, the date the main volume was completed and December 2016, the research deadline for the Supplement. The 2017 Supplement includes updates to all chapters except Chapters 30 and 39 and includes complete rewrites of Chapters 6, 10, 21, and 32. It follows the format of the main volume with cases and materials citing the chapter and page of the original volume so that all materials are placed in the context of the discussion in the original volume.
