Über den Autor
Simon Brown (Lord Brown of Eaton-under-Heywood) studied History at Worcester College, Oxford before switching to Law in his second year and being called to the Bar in 1961. Following a distinguished career on the Bench (perhaps less so on the golf course!), he now sits in the House of Lords as a working crossbench peer.A prolific author over many years - although hitherto published almost exclusively in the Law Reports and Hansard - now, for the first time, Simon Brown writes for a wider readership.
