Polly Pang pollypang9957 — This is a nice short story set after Ink Exchange. It shows a glimpse of Leslie's life after the events in Ink Exchange. I highly recommend this story to anyone reading the series.

Zachary Taylor zachary_taylor — BOOK REVIEW THE LAW OF HABEAS CORPUS 3rd Edition By Judith Farbey QC and The Hon. Mr Justice R.J. Sharpe with Simon Atrill Oxford University Press ISBN: 978-0-19-924824-7 www.oup.com HABEAS CORPUS: THE EVOLUTION AND VULNERABILITY OF A FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT An appreciation from Phillip Taylor and Elizabeth Taylor of Richmond Green Chambers The cornerstone of our liberties, habeas corpus is actually an ancient writ, the origins of which are described in this excellent book aimed at those either new or experienced in these matters. As a legacy of the Middle Ages, habeas corpus became more firmly entrenched four centuries ago as a means of protecting the individual against unfair imprisonment, confinement or detention. Worryingly, it’s taken something of a battering fairly recently in the controversies surrounding the war on terrorism; for example, detention without trial and the imprisonment of detainees at Guantanamo. So this book is timely, dealing with these topical issues, but not before offering up a thorough and useful examination of -- as promised by the title -- the law of habeas corpus itself. First, there is an introduction to the history of habeas corpus, tracing its development primarily from its seventeenth century origins. It was in 16th and 17th centuries that the writ of habeas corpus took is modern form gaining its conspicuous place as a fundamental ingredient of the UK’s Constitution. The significance of habeas corpus in the modern context is that it empowers the court to secure the release of individuals from unlawful custody over a range of circumstance, from detention in prison to the custody of a child, to patients detained for compulsory medical treatment and, as in a number of current high profile cases, individuals wrongly held in detention as the result of the war on terrorism. So fundamental a liberty is habeas corpus that all too many take it for granted, which offers all the more reason why it should be jealously guarded by those charged with ensuring its preservation. Interestingly, this important book started life as the thesis for the D. Phil. at Oxford University by one of the three learned authors, The Hon. Mr Justice R.J. Sharpe, now of the Ontario Court of Appeal. With subsequent revisions and updates, the book has remained topical and is now published by OUP in this latest third edition. The authors have endeavoured to maintain the structure and organization of previous editions while examining all recent developments including, for example, judicial review, immigration cases and the implications of the Human Rights Act 1998, especially when conflicts of interest have emerged between liberty and security. We were amused to read a quote in “The Times” letters column some time ago from a Mr Benjamin Franklin who remarked in effect that those who would sacrifice freedom for safety deserve neither freedom nor safety. Anyone who is concerned, especially in a professional capacity, with the issues raised by this 250 page book should read it. Meticulously footnoted throughout with extensive tables of cases, national legislation, secondary legislation, as well as treaties and conventions (on both sides of the Atlantic) plus a great index, it points the way to literally hundreds of avenues for further research on the evolution and vulnerability of this fundamental right.

Maciej Zasowski sqva — I can't say too much about it, or else it will give away the last book. I enjoyed it, and can't wait for the fourth one.
