    Biography

    Routledge

    “This is an excellent series, which hits the target at a remarkable number of levels. The clarity of its reference points makes it ideal for students new to undergraduate study, while at the same time being the perfect ‘refresher’ book for students about to start on professional courses.  More than that, the series is great as a ‘starter pack’ for non-specialist students covering elements of law as part of their wider studies, and invaluable for teaching international students studying the English common law from abroad.”
    FIONA E.C. KING
    LAW LECTURER (for almost 30 years in Universities & Business Schools in the UK and Europe) 

    “What a relief! A book I can understand quickly.. I’ll be using these this year”
