Review

From the second edition:

`A very good introductory text.'
Richard Clutterbuck, University of Sussex

`An excellent and clearly written book.'
David Hughes, University of Leicester

`I have used the first edition and found that it provides an excellent, clear introduction to an area which students find difficult. The second edition is well up to standard.'
Richard de Friend, University of Kent

`Excellent introductory text'
Aidan Robertson, University of Oxford

`A very good revision of a valuable book. Its clear, up-to-date account of a rapidly developing field will make it very valuable to first year students, and its interesting treatment of background theory and the context of administrative decision making gives it a utility for more advanced
students as well.'
David Feldman, University of Birmingham

`A good book! Clear and concise! Scholarly.'
C.R. Harlow, London School of Economics

`The revisions make it an even better introduction to judicial review than before. It is comprehensive, but concise and clear. A lot of thought has gone into making a complex subject not too difficult to learn. The contracts section is very good now.'
J.S. Bell, University of Leeds

`Excellent balance between exposition and critique.'
C.P. Walker, University of Leeds

'This book, part of the excellent Clarendon Law Series, is a welcome second edition to this highly regarded text. Cane writes with such clarity and ease of expression as to make the text not only accessible but enjoyable ... this is a well written, well referenced thought-provoking text. This
text comes highly recommended not only for the student but also for the teacher of public administration who will no doubt be likewise stimulated by Cane's discussion.'
Ursula O'Hare, University of Newcastle upon Tyne, Teaching Public Administration
