Praise for the 6th edition - 'The sixth edition of Barnett's textbook is up-to-date and has a very clear structure and presentation which makes it accessible for quick reference as well as general reading. The book contains a good amount of references to case law with case summaries in context and useful tables and appendices' - Sylvie Bacquet, University of Westminster, London, UK 'Barnett is based on high academic standards while being easy to read and to understand... it is the perfect introductory text - Alexander Fischer, SOAS, London, UK 'The sixth edition is clear, detailed and thorough... I believe students really enjoy this textbook and I strongly recommend it' - Javier Oliva, University of Wales, Bangor, UK 'I found the chapters were well divided and easy to understand. I actually used this book during revision as it was so clear, it clarified my reading from the others books which I found hard to understand, especially being my first year reading law.' - Soniya Gill, Law Graduate 2009, University of Kent
