As a former tertiary sector employee, this book didn’t “enlighten” me greatly - I left because of some of the problems Williams outlines in this book. Sadly, it only highlighted the “corporate” approach many universities adopt, coupled with ill-advised funding cuts imposed by successive Australian federal governments. I sincerely hope that innovative and assertive approaches are taken to improve things in the future. 🤞🏻
Packed with detail, amusing, interesting and a key resource for legal students and practitioners. Has entries ranging from case notes of major Australian authorities to the architecture of the court and humour in the courtroom. First class.
Dense but packed with information. Case extracts are a bit long but I guess this is constitutional law, after all!
