Quotes 'A fascinating and passionate record of the author's major cases in courts, inquests and public inquiries, whose context will be as familiar to the general reader as to the lawyer, and which concerned or raised issues beyond the narrowly legal' 'I hugely admire him ... This book is not just a show-off catalogue of his greatest hits. It is a shaming, chilling list of injustices.' 'A fascinating insight into the mind of a man who has devoted his life to securing the liberty of others ... It is in the transcripts of his cross examinations where the book really comes alive' 'An in-depth insight into the skills that make an outstanding barrister ... Mansfield is refreshingly lacking in pomposity - surprising in any barrister, let alone such a successful one'
