The eighth edition of Constitutional and Administrative Law has been thoroughly updated to reflect important changes that have taken place since the election of the new coalition government. There is a new expanded section on administrative law, new chapters on international affairs and constitutional reform, and more detailed coverage of many key areas, including human rights, judicial review and the role of semi-accountable public bodies. This is an ideal companion to undergraduate or GDL/CPE courses in constitutional and administrative law or public law.
