Forthcoming Books

 Royal Commissions and Public Inquiries in Australia 2nd edition provides the most comprehensive and up-to-date review of this important, but sometimes overlooked, instrument of public policy. 

  Robert Gordon Menzies, later Sir Robert, was Australia’s longest-serving prime minister, leading the party that he founded, the Liberal Party into Government, from 1949 to 1966 winning seven successful elections in a row. This volume explores Menzies many attributes, while acknowledging his frailties. 

 This new edited volume has been developed because governments in Australia and overseas continue to appoint public inquiries in considerable numbers. Contributors include leading academic specialists and practitioners from across Australian and international jurisdictions.
