"The Penguin Dictionary of Law is the ideal reference guide for lawyers, students and anyone interested in the workings of the legal system. It gives clear, jargon-free definitions of legal terms from abuse of process to youth court as well as providing biographical information on important legal thinkers, from John Locke and Thomas Hobbes to Max Weber and Ronald Dworkin." "This book: has more than 2,500 terms explained; covers key concepts in English, European and International law; has clear definitions of complex terms such as euthanasia, hearsay evidence and remoteness of damage; includes references to key cases and legislation; and provides website addresses of important public bodies and legal organizations."--BOOK JACKET.
