This is a valuable collection, rewarding its readers with fresh
insights into - and provocative assessments of - the challenges
faced by Scots law as it seeks to accommodate the concepts and
practices of human rights. The book will be of considerable
interest also to lawyers in England, Wales and Northern Ireland,
who will find in it a very worthwhile comparative analysis of the
issues faced by their neighbouring legal system as it struggles to
adapt to reforms similar to those which their own systems also
confront. It is certainly recommended reading for all public and
private lawyers with an interest in the complexities of this
multi-dimensional constitutional change.
