Extradition: Law and Practice (Hardcover, 2nd Revised edition)

This book provides the reader with a detailed and systematic analysis of the current state of UK extradition law. It is much more comprehensive than the first edition, dividing the subject into three main areas: (a) general principles; (b) outward extradition from the UK (with separate chapters for extradition to Ireland, Europe, the Commonwealth, and other countries); and (c) inward extradition from those countries (including summaries of their domestic law of extradition) as well as the rules governing inward extradition into the UK itself. For the first time for any book on this subject, the implications of the Human Rights Act are examined in detail. Coverage also includes full analysis of recent developments such as the Pinochet cases. It is arguably the most comprehensive book to have been written on the subject since Sir Edward Clark's book of over 100 years ago.
