Review from previous edition Martin Partington has succeeded admirably in providing a text which both explains things clearly, and encourages the reader to think about the enormous changes currently affecting the legal system. He has been able to draw on his experience not only as a teacher of law, but also as a law reformer and contributor to the work of many important committees. Lord Philips of Worth Matravers A really good introduction to this subject; ideal as pre-course reading. Rebecca Smith, Lecturer in Law, University of Wales, Newport A very good read - this is academic writing at its best. There is a clear narrative and the reader is encouraged to form their own opinions. Roger Thomas, Lecturer in Law, Anglia Ruskin University A comprehensive introduction to the basic role and workings of the English Legal System. Introduction to the English Legal System provides a detailed explanation of the key legal institutions in a logical and easy-to-follow structure. Laurence Thomas, Law student, Durham University
