Critical Acclaim
‘The editors, internationally recognised experts on legal education, have gathered specialist scholars whose fascinating contributions trace the origins, purpose, structure, methods, specialisms, idiosyncrasies and outcomes of legal education in their own jurisdiction. This volume is full of thought and information written by those who know the subject. It is the go-to encyclopedia, and is a valuable source for students, academics, professional bodies, policy makers and politicians.’
