Recensioner i media

Monty Raphael has set out a quick reference tool here which is logically organized and follows the structure of the Act which is set out in the first Appendix. Helpful explanations are given in their historical context which is a great plus factor for another excellent, welcome guide from Blacktone/OUP.
