Abstract
This chapter, by way of introduction to compensatory damages, looks at the different types of loss, the compensatory aims, and the theoretical underpinnings of compensation. It goes on to examine, albeit to reject, the thesis that the primary function of damages is not compensation but is rather to value the right infringed. It also examines the controversial view that a standard measure of damages is a non-compensatory cost of cure.
