Review:
Stephen Livingstone is Professor of Human Rights Law at Queen's University, Belfast. Tim Owen QC is a barrister at Matrix Chambers specializing in cases involving prisoners' rights and prison administration. Alison Macdonald is a junior barrister at Matrix Chambers and Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford.
`Review from previous edition Prison Law by Livingstone and Owen has already established itself as a splendid textbook on prison law.'
Nicola Padfield, The Cambridge Law Journal, Nov 1999
`The book manages to combine a comprehensive account of this very important, and at times quite technical, area of the law with high quality analysis of the law and the enforcement of prisoners' rights in both domestic and international law. Seldom does a text book provide so much factual
information and academic commentary. Prison Law is a book without any serious competitor. Not only is it the leading authority in its field, but it is also a valuable addition to the literature on human rights generally.'
