This book offers a modern, contemporary and innovative approach to the
core curriculum, offering clear explanations to clarify the material
without oversimplification. Carefully developed learning tools are used
to help students to build their knowledge of the legal system of England
and Wales; moreover, all the materials needed by a reader new to legal
education are here in one place.
English Legal System will also help students to translate knowledge
successfully to an assessment situation (whether examination, tutorial
preparation or coursework) through the acquisition and development of
key skills such as problem solving and application, critical reasoning
and evaluation, and research and referencing. The text has been written
with the changes to legal education envisaged by the Solicitors
Regulation Authority and Bar Standards Board in mind.
The focus throughout will be on recent and key case law and contemporary
real-life examples, bringing the subject alive and helping students to
understand the foundations on which the law in England and Wales is
based. The key pedagogic features seek to embed those legal skills
within the context of the content on the legal system.
The associated website provides a comprehensive learning environment
that will provide further illumination of the text and graphics and that
caters for a number of different learning styles with additional video
and audio content.
