Extracts from leading cases are combined with legal, political and philosophical materials and linked together with explanatory text, alongside notes and questions for discussion. The authors take a critical look at the main doctrines of constitutional law as well as the principles of administrative law, examining the operation of the constitution in relation to Parliament, the Executive, and the citizen. Expanded commentary throughout the text provides students with a range of views on challenging issues, which will stimulate thought and discussion.

A new chapter on judicial independence considers the impact of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005, and the position the judiciary occupies within the reformed Ministry of Justice. Newly subdivided chapters on parliamentary government at work lend a new focus to this vital area.
This essential text continues to provide students with instant access to an unrivalled collection of up-to-date judgments and statutory provisions - -ideal for weekly reading, coursework assignments and revision.
