Summary |
The Mason Court ushered in a new age of Australian jurisprudence. Adopting a more explicit style of judicial reasoning, it drew its precedences from a wider range of jurisdictions. The papers in this book debate the role of courts of final jurisdiction and of their chief justices at the end of the 20th century |
