Now in its eleventh edition, this book has been thoroughly revised and updated to take into account the recent developments in the English legal process. It provides a clear and topical account of the most important institutions and practices of the English legal system. This new edition builds on strengths of earlier editions, providing a clear and readable explanation of how the English legal system operates. It deals with the organisation and procedures of courts and tribunals, the trial process and jury system, major forms of redress in private and public law, and discusses the way judges make and determine the law. Throughout, examples are drawn from a wide range of cases to help students develop a rounded understanding of the subject. The companion web site includes updates, and web links.
