Reviews

A sure-fire way to get a 1st class result (Naomi M, law student, Coventry University) -

Since I started using the OUP Q&A guides my grades have dramatically improved (Glen Sylvester, law student, Bournemouth University) -

100% would recommend. Makes you feel like you will pass with flying colours (Elysia Marie Vaughan, law student, University of Hertfordshire) -

Excellent. Very detailed answers which makes a change from the brief answers in other guides. They do not assume knowledge and explain things step by step which is fantastic (Frances Easton, law student, University of Birmingham) -

I would not hesitate to recommend this book to a friend (Blessing Denhere, law student, Coventry University) -

The content is exceptional; the best Q&A books that I've read (Wendy Chinenye Akaigwe, law student, London Metropolitan University) -

I think Q&A guides are crucial and advise my students to buy early on (Loretta Trickett, law lecturer, Nottingham Trent University) -

Much more substantial and less superficial than competitor Q&As. Some guides are rather too simplistic but the OUP guides are much better than the norm (Dr. Tony Harvey, Principal Law Lecturer, Liverpool John Moores University) -

Cleverly and carefully put together. Every bit as good as one would expect from OUP, you really have cornered the market in the revision guides sector. I am also a huge fan of the OUP Concentrate series and I think that these books sit neatly alongside this (Alice Blythe, law lecturer, University of Bolton) -

I do find OUP's Concentrate guides, as usual with your range of publications, at the top end of the range. I will happily recommend this book to my students (Gerald Schaefer, law lecturer, Aberystwyth University) -

Students often lack experience in writing full answers but seeing suggested answers like this provides them with confidence and structure. I will be recommending this book to my students. I will encourage the use of this text not just for revision purposes but for the duration of the unit (Nick Longworth, law lecturer, Manchester Metropolitan University) -

I think it is very helpful for students to have examples of model answers and good analysis to help them with their formative work, and also for revision (Jane Henderson, Senior Lecturer, The Dickson Poon School of Law, King's College London) -
