British Government & The Const Text and Materials

Praise for previous edition: 'Turpin and Tomkins provide a guide that is both immensely detailed and admirably clear [but they also] ... aid the reader who is looking for more depth. In this, British Government and the Constitution has always been immensely useful ... Turpin and Tomkins have produced a textbook ... which is masterly in its treatment of a convoluted and evolutionary area of cross-disciplinary impact. It should be essential reading for students of constitutional law ... Any reader looking for the British constitution, how it works and where it does not, will find no better introduction than [this book].' Public Law Advance praise: 'Turpin and Tomkins is an ideal collection of materials for the study of constitutional law. Its well chosen and varied excerpts (from case-law, committee reports and academic critique) are organized and integrated by an authoritative commentary, offering the student an enticing and challenging introduction to the subject. An engaging juxtaposition of information, ideas and criticism is deftly achieved.' T. R. S. Allan, Professor of Jurisprudence and Public Law, University of Cambridge 'Authoritative, challenging, accessible: Turpin and Tomkins truly is a winning combination.' Richard Rawlings, University College London
