Blackstone's Guide to the Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Act 2004
«This is the latest title in OUPs well known guide series on new legislation. The book is reasonably priced at £29.95 and includes the full text of the Act. The book clearly benefits from its multi-author approach and sets out each of the new provisions with clarity and authority, stating the authors own views on the impact of the legislation with supporting materials from Hansard and other sources. The authors highlight potential difficulties in interpretation (see para 2.39 for an example), and where possible suggest solutions. A very useful book that will assist lawyers seeking to get to grips with this Act, one that is as yet little understood but which will have a massive impact on the work in criminal courts»

«The book is authoritative, well ordered and well presented...The authors provide not only a clear exposition of the law, but also very practical advice as to how to apply it and, therefore, how to argue points on behalf of the alleged victims and the alleged perpetrators...Practitioners in the criminal field will find this excellent book just as useful as family lawyers.»
