This new book is invaluable for undergraduates wishing to gain greater knowledge of both the Law Commission (of England and Wales) and the Scottish Law Commission which were established in 1965 to promote the reform of the laws of their respective jurisdictions.
Bringing together significant information about the nature and development of the Law Commissions, including insightful anecdotage from previous Chairs and members, this book cannot avoid being a useful contribution to the literature on law reform ... a book that brings together some significant and helpful discussion of the role of the Law Commissions and will be a helpful research tool in that context.
[A] well-researched, clear and extended analysis of the work of the Commissions.
