Timely, reflective and rich, a fabulous primer for anyone interested in the many challenges facing Britains new government, offering vital ideas and an indispensable resource for policy-makers, lawyers and citizens." Philippe Sands KC, University College London Every lawyer who sees the law as a catalyst for change both domestically and internationally should read this book. It is the very best of progressive thought on how the law should promote change now.

Written by leading experts in their fields, this is a real blueprint for the future. Lord Charles Falconer, former Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice
