Description: Providing an interdisciplinary overview of Australian constitutional law and practice, this Handbook situates the development of the constitutional system in its proper context. It also examines recurrent themes and tensions in Australian constitutional law, and points the way for future developments.
Review Quotes: "Each chapter contains unique insights and stands on its own as a significant scholarly contribution. But read cover to cover, the effect is compounded, leading inexorably to a more synoptic and textured understanding of the major principles, doctrines and themes of Australian constitutional law. ... The book gives the reader a great deal to ponder, and will - it can safely be predicted - lead to further academic analysis and jurisprudential development. It is indeed a remarkable publication." -- Daniel Reynolds, Australian Law Journal
