Reviews

[A]n erudite collection of essays which at times is thought provoking... it is not necessarily aimed at practitioners, it is a useful tool in understanding how others analyse the concept of indirect discrimination; it explores some of the factors which may consciously or subconsciously influence the thinking of, and arguments of, opponents and judges in their approach to some of the more difficult issues thrown up by indirect discrimination claims.
