Access to Justice
De Smith, Woolf & Jowell's Principles of Judicial Review
This revised edition updates the standard textbook on all aspects of judicial review. It covers the constitutional importance of judicial review and which bodies and decisions are subject to it.
The Pursuit of Justice
The Pursuit of Justice prints for the first time a collection of lectures and papers written and delivered by Lord Woolf since 1986, following his retirement in 2005 from the office of Lord Chief Justice and a judicial career that has spanned over four decades. The papers cover developments that have occurred in a variety of legal areas, and which continue to be relevant in a changing world, including the rule of law and the constitution, the role of judges, access to justice, human rights, medicine, the environment, crime and penal reform, and legal education. Each paper discusses the challenges that have arisen in English common law in recent times and the way they have been solved or attempted to be solved to ensure that justice is done: so that arrests and searches are made properly; that there are fair hearings; readily available lawful remedies; and the removal of unnecessary costs and delays.
Judicial Review of Administrative Action
This fifth edition has been substantially rewritten and expanded to include new topics and chapters and to take account of the numerous changes in both case law and legislation.

De Smith's Judicial Review
"The new edition deals with domestic grounds of review, challenges under the Human Rights Act 1998 and the use of European Community law in judicial review. It: provides solutions to the most complex legal problems relating to judicial review; analyses both the theoretical foundations of the subject and its practice; supplies comprehensive guidance on what to do at every stage of an action for judicial review; explains the impact of the latest case law and procedural developments; sets judicial review in the context of the fast-changing administrative justice system (including 'proportionate dispute resolution', the new tribunal system, recourse to ombudsmen); and draws on relevant experience from other Commonwealth jurisdictions, especially Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand and South Africa."--
Wolf Hall
Inglaterra, década de 1520. Henry VIII ocupa o trono, mas não tem herdeiros. O cardeal Wolsey, o seu conselheiro principal, é encarregue de garantir a consumação do divórcio que o papa recusa conceder. É neste ambiente de desconfiança e de adversidade que surge Thomas Cromwell, primeiro como funcionário de Wolsey e, mais tarde, como seu sucessor. Thomas Cromwell é um homem verdadeiramente original. Filho de um ferreiro cruel, é um político genial, intimidante e sedutor, com uma capacidade subtil e mortal para manipular os outros e as circunstâncias. Impiedoso na perseguição dos seus próprios interesses, é tão ambicioso na política quanto na vida privada. A sua agenda reformadora é executada perante um parlamento que atua em benefício próprio e um rei que flutua entre paixões românticas e acessos de raiva homicida. Escrito por uma das grandes escritoras do nosso tempo, Wolf Hall é um romance absolutamente singular.
