Riassunto

Providing the new law student with an essential introductory resource, Complete Public Law: Text, Cases, & Materials combines clear explanatory text and practical learning features with extracts from a wide range of primary and secondary materials.

The book has been carefully structured with the needs of undergraduate courses in mind. Opening with consideration of basic constitutional principles (in which no previous knowledge is assumed), the authors move on to cover all other essential areas, before closing with extensive consideration of the principles and procedures of judicial review.

A wealth of features such as chapter summaries, definitions of key terms, and reflective questions provide valuable support for students. The two-colour text design allows students to instantly identify the primary materials, and facilitates easy navigation around the book.
