The Justice Factory is the book the judges tried to ban. It lifts the veil on the personality of the senior judges in Scotland, while explaining how they relate to the American and English traditions of judging. The reason for the attempted ban is that this is the first book to be published in the English-speaking world about the personality of judges and the practice of judging which relies for its primary source on the judges themselves. It is a novel attempt to see the rule of law and the threats to it from the point of view of those who have to defend it. Despite this, one of the most senior judes in recent Britsih history wrote to me after reading the book saying: “All in all a very interesting, although rather mischievous, book. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.” - Lord Hope, an ex-Lord President of the Court of Session, and Deputy President of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom
