The seventeenth edition covers all of the latest legislative developments, including the Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Act 2004, the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005, the Drugs Act 2005, and the Racial and Religious Hatred Act 2006. Recent case law, including Hasan, Bentham, Wang, Rimmington; Goldstein, Jones, A-G for Jersey v Holley, Konzani, Kennedy (No2) and Quayle, is also incorporated.
