The challenge forlegal readers is to identifytheir distinctive skills andtalents, the capabilities thatthey possess that cannot,crudely, be replaced byadvanced systems or by lesscostly workers supportedby technology or standardprocesses, or by lay peoplearmed with online self-help

tools. It is argued that themarket is increasingly unlikelyto tolerate expensive lawyersfor tasks (guiding, advising,drafting, researching,problem-solving, and more)that can equally or betterbe discharged, directly orindirectly, by smart systemsand processes. It follows, thebook claims, that the jobsof many traditional lawyerswill be substantially erodedand often eliminated.

At the same time,the book foresees new lawjobs emerging which maybe highly rewarding, evenif very different from thoseof today.Local Authority Liability,4 th Editionby John MorrellJordan Publishing,Hardback, ISBN9781846611278, £79.00,due November 2008This well-established andpopular work provides acomprehensive survey ofthe legal liability of local authorities,written by a team ofleading solicitors and barristersspecialising in local authorityliability claims.

However, thelack of a harmonised patentdispute resolution systemacross the major jurisdictionsmeans that this is not a simpleexercise. Actions taken inone jurisdiction can haveunforeseen consequencesin another; the time takenin the various jurisdictionsto reach a conclusion canvary considerably; and themeasures and remediesavailable differ from countryto country. This major newtitle by leading practitionersis a practical guide to patentlitigation (and alternatives,if available) in a selection ofkey jurisdictions. It coversthe timescale of proceedings,the availability of interimrelief, disclosure, availableremedies and costs, amongother crucial factors. The bookprovides a useful comparisonof how each jurisdiction dealswith the issues that arise andthe practical consequenceso f l i t i g a t i n g i n e a c hlocation.

involved in the conduct andmanagement of internationalpatent litigation, from inhouseprofessionals (patentmanagers, patent attorneysand general counsel) to thosein private practice.Judicial Review Handbook,5 th editionby Michael FordhamHart Publishing,Hardback, £100.00, ISBN9781841138244, dueNovember 2008This is one of the leadingworks in public law, anindispensable source ofreference and a guide tothe burgeoning case law injudicial review.

After two years inthe post-war Army he was called to the Bar at the age of 21 and appointed a Circuit judgeshortly after his 43rd. birthday. He took early retirement at 65 and then heard Criminal InjuriesCompensation appeals for ten years.When he became a barrister in 1950 he was a young man with an unusual background,which included ‘a pathetic attempt’ (his words) to follow several relatives into journalism.After his failure to break into Fleet Street, Eric Stockdale decided to earn his livingfrom chambers in the adjoining Temple. His ability to write led to the publication of manyarticles, followed by books on criminal justice and historical topics, culminating with twoworks inspired by the links of many leaders of the American Revolution with his own Innof Court, the Middle Temple. As this book is about his experiences as a legal author, it alsodeals briefly with his life in the law and describes how he became interested in the differentsubjects about which he wrote.Sir Igor Judge, in his Foreword, comments: ‘This is a remarkable story by any standards,’and adds, ‘much is written humorously.’ The reader, whether lawyer or layman, is likely toconcur with that judgment.OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2008 53
