Publisher's Synopsis

This volume combines the use of reported cases with examination of records held at the National Archives and elsewhere to examine the development of the law of public interest immunity. Comparisons are drawn with the state of privilege concept in the USA and similar principles in commonwealth jurisdictions. The book provides a useful analysis of the evolution of current law.
