Review

Given the range of subjects and variety of styles in the book, there is material to suit the palates of legal practitioners, academics, politicians and social scientists....this book does not confine its style to a narrow legal one. It provides information and analysis across a wide range of legal and socio-political issues in a way which can be grasped by lawyers and non-lawyers alike...it offers information and access at the same time, and on issues which concern every one of us.
