For all students that need a clear and detailed understanding of the fundamentals of the English legal system, this guide:

Explains the intricacies of this area of the law in a simple and straightforward language, but without losing any of the detail or necessary evaluation required for students to progress well in their degree level courses
Uses charts and grids to enable students to grasp complex legal principles with ease
Provides diagrams in order to enhance retention of information
Facilitates learning with clear language and bite-size chunks of text
Enables students to self test so that they are confident in their knowledge before moving onto the next chapter
