LexisNexis Questions and Answers: Constitutional Law provides a sound understanding of Australian constitutional law and gives a clear and systematic approach to analysing and answering problem and exam questions in this complex area. Each chapter commences with a summary of the relevant law and key issues. All questions are followed by a suggested answer plan, a sample answer and comments on how the answer might be assessed by an examiner. The author also offers advice on the common errors to avoid when answering each question.
