About
Law and Practice: Essays on Reform
is a new publication from the Law Society of Ireland
and Clarus Press and edited by two of Ireland's leading
legal minds and commentators, Geoffrey Shannon and Eoin
O'Dell.
Thirty-four award winning essays, spanning
the last five years are presented, for the first time,
in this publication. Each essay
critically examines a specific area of law, details
the law as it stands today, questions its purpose and
effectiveness and then examines proposal for change
and recommendations for reform.
Spanning an array of legal subject areas,
each piece is extensively researched and referenced.
Law and Practice: Essays on Reform will undoubtedly
add to the debate and literature available to Irish
legal thinking.
