[W]ell written ... well organised and accessible. A must-have for law undergraduates and postgraduates and for practitioners. -- Simon Parsons * New Law Journal * [A] commendably concise, well-organised and clearly structured book that will operate as an invaluable introduction to all of the core issues of statutory interpretation. The book can, and indeed should, genuinely be read cover to cover to provide an overview of the core ideas and the trends of the case law, without losing one's way in a morass of historical and unhelpful detail... as an unparalleled practical introduction to one of the truly essential subjects, every public lawyer should own Understanding Legislation. -- C J S Knight, 11KBW * Public Law *
