Trusted by generations of students, and consistently reliable and up to date, Hilaire Barnett’s Constitutional and Administrative Law continues to provide accessible and comprehensive coverage of the Public Law syllabus. Mapped to the common course outline, the Sixteenth edition equips students with a thorough understanding of the UK constitution’s past, present and future by analysing and illustrating the political and socio-historical contexts that have shaped the major rules and principles of constitutional and administrative law, as well as ongoing constitutional reform.

This edition has been fully updated throughout, including additional questions to aid student understanding of this complex area of the law. The online digital resources have been updated with a new student website including useful weblinks, updates to the law (provided by the author), and brand new student revision quizzes.
