This web-site and its sister site lawindexpro.co.uk will provide many answers, but cannot provide them all. Books still provide a better answer to many questions than the net. We list here many books, law and others, which will be of interest to visitors to swarb.co.uk. Buying your books through these pages will go a very small way toward supporting the maintenance and improvement of the free information which we provide.
Blackwells have a particularly good range of professional books, and we are happy to use them for this purpose. Please let me know if you have any difficulties, or any help in finding either a particular book, or any book to help you in your situation.
With all law books it is particularly vital to check the publication date. Some areas of law change rapidly, and a book can be up to date one day, and quite out of date the next. If you have any doubt or question about a book, please just ask.
If there is a book you want us to list, please just say so. We can normally have it listed within 24 hours, and usually delivery can be made within a very few days.
