Bailey, Harris and Jones is an indispensable text that facilitates a thorough understanding of this complex subject area. It supplies the reader with an unrivalled collection of materials and commentary on all major aspects of the law relating to civil liberties in England and Wales, and is firmly established as a superb resource for students on civil liberties and constitutional law courses.

This sixth edition has been substantially revised and updated to reflect the wealth of new statutory and case law that has developed since publication of the fifth edition. The content has been significantly re-organised to ensure the book remains accessible and fully focused on meeting the needs of the modern law student.

The combination of a wide range of source material together with extensive analysis, commentary and thorough referencing to other sources of information makes Civil Liberties - Cases, Materials, and Commentary an essential resource for all students of civil liberties and human rights law.
