LexisNexis Questions and Answers: Constitutional Law provides a sound understanding of Australian constitutional law and gives a clear and systematic approach to analysing and answering problem and exam questions in this complex area.

Each chapter commences with a summary of the relevant law and key issues. All questions are followed by a suggested answer plan, a sample answer and comments on how the answer might be assessed by an examiner. The author also offers advice on the common errors to avoid when answering each question. It includes a separate chapter of hypothetical fact situations that incorporate multiple constitutional issues in a single problem question.

The fifth edition has been revised and updated throughout and includes new chapters on the states and territories and first nations peoples and the constitution.
