ISBN: 9781845119324 / Angielski / Miękka / 313 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Sir Oliver Popplewell's career goes a long way to explode myths and to show what judges are really like: impartial, skilled in the law, above party politics certainly, but essentially human. He was certainly born into a comfortable middle-class family, but his upbringing was (to quote from Stephen Fry's Foreword to this book) ""more Betjeman Metroland than Wodehouse Mayfair."" Sir Oliver was called to the Bar by the Inner Temple and a successful career at the junior bar and on the Oxford and Midland Circuit culminated in his becoming a QC and his subsequent elevation to the High...

A generation later the Warren Court's decisions still define American freedoms.
