Lester, Pannick & Herberg: Human Rights Law and Practice
Human rights is a complex field of law, especially as it impacts on many other legal practice areas. Since the publication of the second edition, human rights law has grown in importance in the UK and there are now few areas of law which the Human Rights Act 1998 does not influence.
This new edition of Lester, Pannick and Herberg: Human Rights Law and Practice has been substantially re-written to take into account the major changes which have occurred in this area of the law. It includes not only an up-to-date summary of European and UK human rights law but also wider international and comparative case law. It places this subject within its wider parliamentary context and connects with other jurisdictions.
