Federal Jurisdiction in Australia has stood the test of time. … a ‘classic text’ – a well deserved description. … Like its predecessors, the third edition makes a careful and detailed analysis of each of the heads of federal jurisdiction and presents a considered analysis of relevant case law in the interpretation of these heads. The book also analyses the tensions that have developed in the dual system of federal courts and state courts exercising federal jurisdiction. Alternative Law Journal, Vol 28(6), August 2003
