Elizabeth A. Martin - A Dictionary of Law

Elizabeth A. Martin “A Dictionary of Law"
Oxford University Press, USA (July 20, 2006)
ISBN: 019280698X
608 pages

This fully up-to-date edition takes account of recent changes in UK legislation. It is a handy desk reference for lawyers and an ideal source of legal terminology for students and secretaries in any country where the legal system is based on English law. It provides clear, jargon-free information for professionals, students, and people without a legal qualification. It contains over 4,000 entries that define and explain the major terms, concepts, processes, and the organization of the English legal system. It features authoritative and up-to-date articles which have been written by practising and academic lawyers. New entries cover the Woolf reforms, human rights law, as well as family law, central and local government, and international law. This work was described by leading university lecturers as being ' the best law dictionary at present' and 'excellent for non law students as well as Law undergraduates'.

This dictionary has been written by a distinguished team of academic and practising lawyers. It is intended primarily for those without a qualification in law who nevertheless require some legallmowledge in the course oftheir work: chartered surveyors and accountants, civil servants and local-government officers, social workers and probation officers, as well as businessmen and legal secretaries are typical examples of those whose work often calls for a knowledge of the
precise meaning (and spelling) of a legal term. Each article, therefore, begins with a clear definition.
