The English Legal System combines comprehensive and thorough coverage
of the main topics covered on English legal system courses with a lively
and engaging style to capture students' attention and provide them with
a firm foundation for their study of law. This book enables students to
first understand all of the key areas of the English legal system, and
then to engage with the subject fully for themselves. The law is not
just presented but critiqued, with a range of learning features which
encourage students to actively engage with contentious issues and
difficult questions. Everyday examples help students to apply their
knowledge of the law in a practical way, while questions for reflection
help students to analyse, evaluate, and think critically.
Aided by a clear structure, arranged in five parts, students will be
able to fully grasp the processes involving in making and reforming the
law.
