Simon Honeyball - Böcker

Succinct in its treatment of the fundamentals, and interwoven with contextual explanation and analytical consideration of the key debates, Honeyball & Bowers' Textbook on Employment Law continues to provide readers with an accessible account of the subject. Including chapter introductions and new end-of-chapter summaries, students of employment law are guided through the intricacies, while further reading suggestions assist with independent research and essay preparation. The critical elements of individual and collective employment law are considered along with treatment of the relationship between UK and EU law, to give readers a wider view of the issues.

This textbook is an ambitious and engaging introduction to the more advanced writings on employment law, primarily designed to allow students to ‘get under the skin’ of the topic and begin to build their critical thinking and analysis skills. Each chapter is structured around key questions and debates that provoke deeper thought and, ultimately, a clearer understanding.The aim of the book is therefore not to present a complete overview of theoretical issues in employment law, but rather to illustrate the current debates which are currently going on among those working in shaping the area. The text features summaries of the views of notable experts on key topics and each chapter ends with a list of guided further reading.

First published in 1998, this volume examines the work of Ronald Dworkin, the leading legal philosopher of our time, ten years after his seminal work, Law’s Empire. Its impact and influence was so extensive that the authors felt compelled to undertake both an in-depth analysis of both the book itself and its critical reaction, including a survey of the literature on Law’s Empire.
