No matter how good your research and study skills, the ultimate test for the law student is the exam. This book explains how to successfully tackle the sort of problems and essay questions typically found in exam papers. The author clearly guides students through the process of planning and structuring answers, providing advice on what to include, and on what to leave out.
The book contains
50 questions and example answers divided into chapters covering all major topics within both domestic civil liberties and international human rights. Each chapter begins with an introduction focusing on important points and ends with suggestions for further reading. Each question is supported by clear commentary indicating exactly what examiners are looking for, followed by an answer plan listing
the key points to cover.
Online Resource Centre
An Online Resource Centre accompanies the book, providing updates in the law, links to useful websites, suggestions for further reading and a glossary to develop students' knowledge of subject-specific terms.

Readership: Human rights or civil liberties courses are increasingly popular options taken in the second or third year of the LLB. Human rights law is a major growth area not only in the UK but internationally.
Human rights is also pervasive throughout all the core courses studied on the LLB and so an examination guide on the subject is useful for all law students. Public law is a compulsory course
taken in the first or the second year of a law degree and incorporates the subject of civil liberties/human rights.
