520	1		_a"Legal Method is a lively introduction to both the nature and sources of law and the techniques which lawyers use when handling those sources. It emphasises the constitutional context of legal method, including the relationship between the domestic English legal system and European law, and deals with both the framework of the Human Rights Act 1998 and the way it works. How uncertainties arise within the law and how the courts resolve them in individual cases is an underlying theme throughout." "Legal Method assumes no prior knowledge and makes its content accessible by clarity of explanation rather than by dilution of content. In addition to more conventional sources, authors as varied as Jonathan Swift, Alexander Pope, W. S. Gilbert and T. S. Eliot are cited."--BOOK JACKET.
