Understanding the Rule of Law is an outstanding book for all who are interested in democracy in the state, justice and human rights.
The accessible and relaxed style of writing, the choice of compelling and interesting examples and the use of a logical and simple structure should find the book an audience outside of the legal profession. Dr Corstens' accomplished career, unique vantage point, and his willingness to offer his personal opinions will make it a satisfying read for lawyers as well.
Geert Corstens is former President of the Supreme Court of The Netherlands. With the assistance of Reindert Kuiper who is a Judge in the Court of Appeal in Amsterdam. Updated for the English translation by John Murray who is former president of the Supreme Court of Ireland.
