About the Book



Presents a critical, in-depth analysis of the law-making process in the UK.



Book Synopsis



This book presents a critical, in-depth analysis of the law-making process.

Now in its 9th edition, this leading textbook presents a complete overview of the law-making procedure in the UK. Written by Michael Zander KC, one of the foremost authorities on the workings of the legal system, it combines critical and clear commentary with a well-chosen and wide-ranging selection of materials so that students have at their fingertips everything they need to know about the law-making process.

Dealing with every stage and all forms of law-making, it looks at:
- the preparation of legislation;
- its passage through Parliament;
- statutory interpretation;
- the operation of the rules of precedent in judicial decision-making;
- the many facets of judicial law-making; and
- the machinery of law reform.

The 9th edition has been updated to include the latest information and commentary about government action, case law, legislation, official reports and a great range of legal and political journals. It provides extensive coverage of the law-making process post-Brexit and analysis of the changing character of the Supreme Court.



Review Quotes




"REVIEW OF THE SEVENTH EDITION
Like all Professor Zander's written works, this new edition provides us with a readable, illuminating study of the issues... this is a substantial work, and appropriate to do justice both to the importance and the subtle refinements of the processes by which our laws are made." --The Rt Hon the Lord Judge, former Lord Chief Justice, New Law Journal

"REVIEWS OF THE FIRST EDITION
The Law-Making Process is a book which has developed out of the author's Cases and Materials on the English Legal System. The result lies somewhere between a collection of cases and materials and a text-book, the author illustrating a lively text by well-chosen extracts from a wide variety of sources." --Law Quarterly Review

"The materials are well chosen, well grouped, varied and usually of a sensible length. They raise a series of consistently fascinating questions about the contemporary evolving and imperfect system." --Journal of the Society of Public Teachers of Law

"Michael Zander has got together a most interesting collection of cases and materials, extracts and excerpts from all kinds of sources, with a light lucid linking commentary ... The student who absorbs this book will have a good grounding, he will be on the right road. The more mature lawyer will have a better understanding of his craft. The law-maker who addresses himself to the institutional problems raised in this book, and genuinely seeks to overcome them, will be worthy of his responsibilities." --New Law Journal

"This book shows that by using a full-range of source materials enlivened by critical comment it is possible to achieve a high level of knowledge about the mysteries of the law. The work is highly recommended." --The Legal Executive

"It should be read by anyone whose elected or vocational office requires him to understand the law making process in this country." --Justice of the Peace

"Then there are the two groups of students whose needs inspired Professor Zander to compile this volume. Taking the non-law students first, they should find this book a boon and a blessing, if they are grappling with a specialised part of an unfamiliar subject. As for the law students, there is something familiar and something fresh for them, with plenty of indications for future reading. The Zander approach has given them a new way of looking at the law library shelves." --Statute Law Review

"This is a most readable, stimulating book containing many extracts and excerpts which the ordinary law student would not find and might not search out, even if he were given the references. While no attempt has been made to deal with Scots law or Scottish conditions much of the book is generally relevant to study in Scotland and could be read with profit by Scottish students." --Professor David Walker, Juridical Review

"A veritable treasure chest of information about the legal system and how it works. It is also amazingly accessible...and deserves a place on every law student's shelf." --Per Laleng, University of Kent
