This book consists of an advocate’s reflections on the judicial system. That is a subject about which most laymen, and many lawyers, have very pronounced views in private but which the mysticism surrounding the law often inhibits them from expressing in public. The reluctance to discuss so important an area of our government is regrettable, not least because the high quality of the English judiciary ensures that the English legal system has nothing to fear from debate on this subject.
