Fighting for Justice: The History and Origins of Adversary Trial
ISBN: 9781904380290 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 178 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book shows how adversary trial evolved in England only in the 18th century.

A central message of that-now classic-work was that such...
