The real reason for the emergence of this book is that it is hard to find resources to explain complex issues of the EU Law in plain language, which makes it very difficult for those taking an interest, in particular law students. Moreover, many years of teaching experience in this subject and seeing students experience difficulties is the key driver behind this book. This book does not repeat material that is available in many textbooks that are in print. Rather, it endeavours to present every topic in plain language and concludes every chapter with a fictitious explanatory sample case. In other words, it is an introduction to the subject of EU Law, the objective of which is to explain the topic both theoretically and in its application dimension. Additionally, this book will assist students to prepare for courseworks/examinations. At the end of the book there is also a test that summarizes all the subjects contained in the book, which is appropriate to the first stage SQE (Solicitors Qualifying Examination) examination model that will be introduced in September 2021. ‘This is a clear and concise book with many helpful visual aids (diagrams, tables etc…) that make it very easy to follow. The content defines, explains and covers the key aspects of the English Legal System.’ Ms Amel Ketani, Barrister and Senior Lecturer at BPP University ‘Through explanation, questions and application examples, this book compliments traditional English Legal System textbooks in an easily accessible and practically useful way.’ Dr Ryan Hill, Deputy Head of School, Anglia Ruskin University Law School CONTENTS: Abbreviations About the author Foreword. CHAPTER I Introduction: History, Sources and Institutions CHAPTER II Sources of Law I: Domestic Legislation CHAPTER III Source of Law II: Case Law CHAPTER IV Source of Law III: International Law CHAPTER V The Civil Justice System CHAPTER VI The Criminal Justice System CHAPTER VII Legal Professionals in the English Legal System Summary: Sample Test Questions Answers Glossary of Legal Terminology.
