We were putting the finishing touches to the first edition of this book as the Coalition Government, which was in office from 2010 to 2015, was formed. At its inception, the Coalition Government endorsed a substantial programme of constitutional reform, although key elements of it — including the possibility of changing the voting system for UK general elections, investigating the replacement of the Human Rights Act 1998 with a ‘Bill of Rights’, and the replacement of the current House of Lords with a wholly or mainly elected second chamber — ultimately did not come to fruition. Every chapter has been thoroughly updated, in particular those related to the implications of Brexit Every chapter in this edition has been thoroughly updated, and many parts of the text have been fundamentally rewritten. As explained above, we have attempted to reflect the richness and diversity of the constitutional developments that have taken place since the previous edition was written, while placing those developments in context by reference to the constitution’s fundamental principles and the book’s key themes. The new material and developments found in this edition are far too numerous to list exhaustively, but the following are worth emphasising. Practical examples illustrate the importance of public law to everyday life in the UK and discussion questions encourage students to consider contentious issues The authors have a style and flair that is extremely impressive yet the book remains easy to understand and the information is clear and uncomplicated. * Staci Quinn, Law Student, Liverpool John Moores University *
