This book provides a stimulating, carefully planned introduction to the key issues and debates within family law from some of the leading authorities within their field. It is designed both as a self standing book focusing on the key issues in the subject, and as a supplement to more detailed textbooks on the subject. It is essential reading for anybody studying or practising in the field of family law.

Each chapter is concerned with one of the main areas of family law (such as adoption, domestic violence, marrriage and divorce), and covers a range of themes, including the public/private divide, balancing the interests of family members, moral values and family law, cost and the legal system, and the enforcement of family law. The book reflects the interdisciplinary nature of the debates on family law, and the difficult social and political issues which these have raised.

Review:
"The tone is approachable, reader-friendly and empathises with the student. It really is a helping hand."

This wide-ranging new textbook provides comprehensive coverage of family law relating to both children and adults in one volume. The author analyses the key principles of the current law in a context that is informed by the theories and realities of contemporary society. The result is a clear, highly relevant and high-value course book for students who develop a fascination with this contentious and dynamic area of law.
The author includes topics rarely treated in family law textbooks but of growing significance to family lawyers and society in general- in particular the legal regulation of pregnancy, the elderly, and the different forms of state protection of children. Family Law also provides detailed analysis of the significance of the Human Rights Act 1998 on various aspects of family law and discusses international conventions dealing with family issues. Each chapter ends with a summary of the main points covered, providing students with a useful tool for learning and revision. A bibliography is included at the end of the book.
Family Law is essential reading for both LLB and LLM options in family law and child law. Postgraduate students following the Diploma in Social Work and associated Masters level qualifications, as well as undergraduate students studying for the BA in Social Work, should also find the book helpful.
Jonathan Herring is a Fellow of Exeter College, Oxford and was formerly a Fellow in Law and Director of Studies at New Hall, Cambridge. He is a qualified (non-practising) solicitor. His research and academic interests also include criminal and medical law.
