HOMICIDE – THE LAWS OF AUSTRALIA<br />
Paul Fairall<br />
Homicide – The Laws of Australia is a portable yet<br />
comprehensive reference which provides a multijurisdictional,<br />
principles-based approach to the<br />
law relating to homicide.<br />
This new work, authored by Professor Paul<br />
Fairall, will be based on content currently<br />
published in Subtitle 10.1 “Homicide” of The Laws<br />
of Australia encyclopaedia, and will cover the<br />
following topics - General Principles; Homicide<br />
– Conduct Elements; Murder – Mental Element;<br />
Constructive Murder; Partial Defences to Murder;<br />
Manslaughter; Related Offences; and Procedural<br />
Matters and Punishment.<br />
One of the greatest strengths of this book will<br />
be its comprehensive and multi-jurisdictional<br />
coverage, clearly addressing the extent to<br />
which the laws of the different States and<br />
Territories differ, such as intoxication, diminished<br />
responsibility and provocation. Additionally,<br />
the propositional style of The Laws of Australia<br />
provides a format which is easy to browse, and<br />
the explanation and analysis of core principles<br />
is supported by extensive footnoting to further<br />
aid research.<br />

INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL LAW AND<br />
HUMAN RIGHTS<br />
de Than and Shorts<br />
This book provides students, academics and<br />
other interested persons with an accessible,<br />
thorough and in-depth analysis of this complex<br />
and challenging field. In addition to using a<br />
wide variety of sources to explain the new law<br />
and the role and operation of the future court,<br />
it analyses and interprets the various challenges<br />
confronting it and assesses its future role in<br />
public international law. Each international crime<br />
is examined in a separate chapter, e.g. genocide,<br />
war crimes, torture, crimes against humanity.<br />
A series of chapters address the boundaries of,<br />
and relationship between, international criminal<br />
law and human rights; e.g., human rights<br />
violations of women as international<br />
crime, and the uneasy position of human<br />
rights in extradition and immigration law.<br />
