Hanks' Australian constitutional law

"This classic work, first written by P J Hanks QC more than 35 years ago, is the authoritative book for the study of constitutional law. This book considers the concepts underlying our Constitution and explores constitutional decision-making in context. The title reviews all of the important constitutional decisions of the High Court of Australia, and exposes the issues that arise in those decisions to a critical analysis. The new edition of this highly respected work is restructured and gives a current and comprehensive account of this area of law in 10 concise chapters. Australian Constitutional Law: Materials and Commentary covers all major areas of study, in constitutional law as well as in public law."--Publisher's website.
