Description
The third edition of Nemes and Coss’Effechve Legal Research marks another step in the evolution of this well-established book, with the introduction of a new authoring team, a modernised format and substantial updating of the subject matter.
This work continues to emphasize techniques and strategies that are vital for successful legal research. The text includes helpful illustrations, flowcharts and diagrams to familiarise readers with the environment in which they will be undertaking research.
The work canvasses a wide variety of print-based and electronic research resources relevant to Australian law. The authors have provided both descriptive and critical instruction in the employment of these resources, with worked examples based on contextual problems and pointers to potential dangers.
Common errors, handy hints and real life scenarios punctuate the text. In addition, the layout has been modified to ensure ease of navigation throughout the broad range of information provided. Citation advice is now more consistent with the widely adopted Australian Guide to Legal Citation.
