Principles, Procedure, and Justice
This collection is in honour of Adrian Zuckerman, Emeritus Professor of Civil Procedure at the University of Oxford. Bringing together a distinguished group of judges and academics to reflect on the impact of his work on our understanding of civil procedure and evidence today.

Civil Justice in Crisis
A sense of crisis in the administration of civil justice is present in many countries. Delays and high costs render access to the civil courts either useless or prohibitively expensive or both. The crisis takes different forms. In some jurisdictions the problems lie in high and unpredictable costs but in others there are overcrowded courts and exorbitant delays. Those interested in civil justice will be familiar with their own system but they will seldom have knowledge of other systems and these essays, written by leading experts in the field, survey different systems of civil justice from other jurisdictions. An understanding of other systems will enrich the reform discussions in which each country by drawing attention to common problems, to their roots, to the solutions tried and, above all, to the consequences (for better or for worse) of reform. Civil Justice in Crisis shows that we can learn from others' success but that we may find their failures even more instructive.

The Principles of Criminal Evidence
Like any procedure for determining the truth about events, the law of criminal evidence has to be evaluated by reference to its structure and its general principles. However, there are three distinct principles governing the practices of the jury system which require that this particular law be treated in a distinct way. This book examines the role played by the lay judgement of jurors, and discusses the judicial practices which have evolved to satisy the following three principles: the desire to discover the truth; the need to protect the innocent from conviction; and the need to maintain adequate standards of propriety in the criminal process. The central feature of the law of criminal evidence is to be found in the courts' continual search for a balance between the competing demands of these three principles.
Civil Procedure
This is detailed and consistent account of the whole CPR system, dealing with how the overriding objective and other principles underlying civil procedure are applied and how judicial discretion and case management powers are exercised. Complementing the Green Book and other leading civil procedure titles, it analyses reported and unreported case law drawing out the principles to the applied, advising on areas where clear precedent has not yet been established or where the authority is open to question. It applies principles and human rights considerations to guide practitioners on how judges are, or should be exercising their powers and provides arguments to use before them. Endorsed by Lord Woolf, this text is designed for efficient task-oriented access to key information.
