DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Sourcebook on the English Legal System is a key collection of primary legal sources,Committee and Commission reports, explanatory documents and articles. A variety of critical articles and commentaries complement and expand upon these materials. Since the first edition of this book in 1996, the English legal system has undergone major and comprehensive changes. As a result of these profound changes, this second edition has been thoroughly updated to include presentation and analysis of three landmark pieces of legislation: the Access to Justice Act 1999, the Civil Procedure Rules 1998 and the Human Rights Act 1998. Other changes abound: the Auld Committee has undertaken a root and branch review of the criminal justice system. The Crown Prosecution Service has been re-organised, the nature of judicial impartiality has been authoritatively defined, the role of the jury has been exposed to intense public and legal debate, liability of advocates for courtroom negligence has been established, the appeals system has been altered, alternative dispute resolution has become a major feature of British life, and European law has continued to widen and deepen its application. The Sourcebook guides the reader through these areas, as well as the more traditional elements of any course on the English legal system, with clarity and insight.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The second edition of the Criminal Law Sourcebook has been significantly expanded in order to provide law students with a comprehensive selection of key materials drawn from law reports,statutes, Law Commission Consultation Papers and Reports, and Home Office publications. The materials reflect the range of topics taught on the vast majority of undergraduate and CPE criminal law modules, and provide a platform from which the reader can embark upon a more critical evaluation of both theory and doctrine. Extensive extracts are included from a number of recent landmark rulings, including decisions by the House of Lords in B v DPP (defence of mistake), R v Smith (objective test for the defence of provocation), R v Hinks (whether the recipient of a gift can be a thief), and R v Powell and Daniels; R v English (scope of accessorial liability for murder), and the Court of Appeal's ruling in In Re A (conjoined twins). Recent statutory initiatives that have been incorporated include the Protection from Harassment Act 1997, the Criminal Justice (Terrorism and Conspiracy) Act 1998, and the Sexual Offences (Amendment) Act 2000. The impact of the Human Rights Act 1998, in so far as it relates to substantive criminal law, is also covered. Substantial extracts are provided from all relevant Law Commission and Home Office law reform publications. In addition to the draft Criminal Code Bill, materials have been selected dealing with reform of sexual offences, consent, conspiracy to defraud, deception offences, offences against the person, accessorial liability and involuntary manslaughter.
