Description
Part of an innovative new series from Oxford, Public Law Directions takes a fresh, lively approach to the study of public law. Written with exceptional clarity, the book guides students through all the key areas studied on public law courses and breaks the subject into manageable chunks, making this an ideal text for those new to the subject.
The book employs a range of helpful learning features to provide extra support to students. Features such as case summaries and definition boxes develop understanding, while use of questions and thinking points helps students engage with the subject matter.
