Bøker av P. S. (former Professor of English Law Atiyah

This revised edition has been updated and expanded to include a new essay on freedom of contract and the New Right, which charts the latest shift in the development of contract law. The author argues that this shift can be traced to the New Right's advocacy of political and economic freedom.

In this title, P.S. Atiyah introduces the reader to a number of fundamental issues about the law, the legal profession, and the adjudicative process. He also discusses the effect of membership of the EC on our law, the recent controversy over the independence of the judiciary, and the problems arising from the cost of legal services and legal aid.
