Lives of the Law

Lives of the Law collects the most important later writings of Tom Bingham, widely heralded as the greatest English judge of our time. Bingham brings his distinctive, engaging style to tell the story of the diverse lives of the law, its life in government, in business, and in human wrongdoing. With a vivid sense of history, and an unrivalled clarity of analysis, these papers bring to life some of the major issues in public life - from reforming the constitution to the growth of human rights - for the lawyer and non-lawyer alike.
