Details

This is the definitive judicial review book, with meticulous case-law analysis throughout and encyclopaedic coverage of this key field of practice.

The new edition of this Handbook is an authoritative and indispensable reference and a guide to the law and practice of judicial review. Established as essential for anyone engaged or interested in public law cases, it offers unrivalled coverage of the case-law.

The Handbook has been extensively revised and updated by the author. It stands as a statement of the law of judicial review, organised into 65 parts, each supported by a full presentation of the sources and an unparalleled selection of case references and quotations.

Having previously been a leading practitioner, and now having served for six years as a High Court Judge, Sir Michael Fordham casts his experienced eye over the case-law, presenting and explaining the materials with expertise and clarity in this important area of law.
