Recenzii
… a scholarly and comprehensive excursion through the intricacies of the legal foundation of the political entity ― the State of Victoria. … The book … is a valuable and scholarly contribution to an important, but often underestimated area of public law in Australia. The work is written in an easy style and usefully concentrates on the current Victorian constitutional position. Accordingly, this book is not some musty tome about arcane practices largely rooted in a dim colonial past, but is a modern, up-to-date and scholarly work dealing with a Constitution of relevance and importance to all Victorians. This relevance is highlighted by the significant recent electoral chances that passed their first test in the 2006 Victorian State Election. The Constitution of Victoria should have a place on the bookshelves of lawyers, parliamentarians and politicians, judicial officers, public servants and those interested [in] questions of public law in Australia generally and Victoria more generally.
