Revue de presse

Review from previous edition Review from previous edition 'There really is no other book that addresses so completely the issues tackled in this one. Many "Question and Answer" books will give subject-based guidance on how to tackle certain topics, but this book provides a tactical approach which can be adapted to fit virtually any type of legal problem or essay. An essential book for the library and, arguably, for all first year student's reading lists.' (Alison Bone, University of Brighton, The Law Quarterly Review)

'The book is organised in a clear and logical manner and uses text boxes with important points and summaries to good effect.' (TSG Life, Summer 2006)
