Review Quotes:
"Graham starts from the position that judicial neutrality is impossible ... However, Graham seeks to push this further, revealing not only that judges do this but, more interestingly, characterising and determining the extent and impact of their individuality on their decision-making. The result is a significant contribution to the growing literature on judicial studies." --Legal Studies
"This work is a joy. The subject matter is interesting and - given the implications for the law and legal system - important. The final chapter, looking at what could be done to control the effects on judicial individuality on the law, makes it a book of wider policy interest." --The Law Society Gazette
