Description
The essays are written primarily for University law students and students in other tertiary institutions studying constitutional law either as a core course or as a required ancillary course. The book thus serves an important need to make academic materials available to such students ;n these days of harrowing book scarcity in the country. But the essays will also reward reading by politicians and others, including lawyers, who may want or need to read up elements of constitutional law or to brighten their dimming knowledge of rudiments of the subject.
The authors make no claim or pretention to details or exhaustiveness in their treatment of the issues discussed. Any good student therefore committed to excellence will need to consult additional materials. For this reason, the authors themselves have been concerned to provide at the end of each chapter a list of references for further reading.
