Recenzii

...the scholarly contributions of the cartographers in this lovingly assembled book are a testament to Michael Taggart's incomparable mapping skills in the landscape of administrative law. A Simple Common Lawyer is an impressive and richly deserved tribute to one of the titans of Commonwealth public law: it functions as a fantastic primer, rather than substitute, for Taggart's voracious writings and exemplifies the enduring virtues of the festschrift genre.The obvious diversity yet underlying unity of the subjectmatter contained within the volume is an apt reflection of a scholar who has resolutely demonstrated that a culture of justification should operate in academia aswell as in public administration.
To the extent that it is possible for one volume to reflect the depth and variety of Taggart's scholarship, this volume succeeds admirably and does so in large part because the contributions draw upon many of the themes or arguments that vexed Taggart. This book reflects the work of the person it honours in another way. It is about big ideas and examines difficult questions that do not have easy answers. The result is a strong work that covers complex issues and does so in a thoughtful and often provocative way. The sharp comparative focus of the book will lift readers out of the confines of their own jurisdiction to a wider range of ideas about administrative law.
the volumes provide a wide audience for many erudite and deserving papers. They provide an oppurtunity for public lawyers to dip in to other jurisdictions and to identify commonalities and the helpful foreign reference.
A Simple Common Lawyer will appeal not just to those in the legal community but to anyone wishing to understand how public law works or critically consider how it should work.A fitting tribute to Professor Taggart, A Simple Common Lawyer offers an insightful, engaging, and diverse collection of essays any publi law enthusiast will thoroughly enjoy wading through.
To a large extent, it is the intellectual gratitude expressed by its architects that make the book a celebration, a fest, of public law scholarship, a rich source of inspiration to reflect, research, and write on the challenges that lay ahead. It is an uncommon book for a simple, albeit uncommon, common lawyer, one we can easily imagine surfing somewhere on Superman's cape, in a thunder of laughter.
