Editorial Reviews
Review
'The book, dealing, as it does, with almost every question that arises in relation to the judiciary, should be a most useful work for lawyers and law students. It should also be invaluable to those working in the media and, through them, may serve to give the general public a more informed idea of the questions concerning the judiciary that inevitably arise from time to time.' UNSW Law Journal
Book Description
This work will come to be considered the definitive book on the Australian judiciary, its history, its training, its work, its techniques, its problems and its future. Apart from a wealth of descriptive material about different tiers of courts and judges and the role of the judiciary as the third sector of government, the authors offer analysis and commentary about judicial conduct, judicial independence, the work of judges beyond the courts, accountability of judges, and the dangers to judicial institutions. The Australian Judiciary is an excellent reference and will appeal to legal scholars internationally.
