Reviews

'Alison Young's new edition of Turpin and Tomkins is a hugely welcome addition to the teaching resources in public law. By placing legal materials in their broader political and constitutional context the book provides a highly accessible and absorbing approach to the subject. It combines the study of basic ideas with a lucid account of their application to a wide range of practical issues.' T. R. S. Allan, Professor of Jurisprudence and Public Law, University of Cambridge
