Reviews
[A] truly excellent and delightful work. This is a veritable feast of John's lectures. -- The Right Honourable Lord Briggs of Westbourne * The Middle Templar Magazine *
The conception of justice pursued by Lord Dyson to navigate the line between continuity and change is one based on rigorous, close and precise analysis of the legal issues before him... Justice: Continuity and Change showcases a demonstrably strong approach to the judicial role across a rich spectrum of law in this jurisdiction and others. -- Peter Sibley * Cambridge Law Journal *
The overall approach seems to be an openness to cautious incrementalism, and a willingness to defend decisions the particular judge thinks fall on the right side of the line for development: sometimes continuity, sometimes change... These collections provide an opportunity to understand and engage with the whats, whys and wherefores of the judicial role at a time of evolution for the judiciary and the law. -- James Lee and Simon Lee, The Dickson Poon School of Law, King's College London and The Open University, Milton Keynes * Legal Studies *
