Unique and highly prestigious, this publication brings together in one volume some of the most important legal writings on the development of the law by the High Court.
Containing authoritative essays that were presented at the national conference held in Canberra in October 2003 to mark the Centenary of the High Court of Australia (1903-2003), this text provides valuable and essential insights into many important legal issues in Australian jurisprudence by the most eminent judges, barristers, and legal scholars.
Each chapter is an original work of scholarship that broadens and deepens our understanding of Australian law and government. Together they provide a rich and varied account of the Court's first century as well as setting an agenda for the years to come.
