Résumé: La 4e de couverture indique : "Public law : text, cases, and materials takes a fresh approach by exploring how the law works in practice. The experts authors guide you through the subject via their incisive commentary and clear and focused coverage of the key institutions, legal principles, conventions, and debates. They also encourage constant reflection and critical thought through the use of regular questions, hypothetical examples, and mini case studies. The inclusion of extracts from key sources grounds the discussion firmly in exploring the relevance of the law to the lives of UK citizens. This leading text is all you need to develop a thorough and wide-ranging knowledge of this vital subject."
