Reviews

The Tuning Cymbal: Selected Papers and Speeches of Robert French, edited by Robert Pascoe...is a noteworthy compilation of the ideas, reflections and, at times, subtle advocacy of one of Australia's most prolific jurists...Critical to the success of this collection is the adoption of a format in which the articles in each topic grouping are prefaced by an introductory comment from an expert in the field...It produces a profound effect. - Shipra Chopra, NSW Bar News, Summer 2020
