Message to those waiting to start their law degree at university in September:

Buy a copy of this book by @JoshuaRozenberg. It only costs £10. It is brimming with insight, but is an effortless read. It will prime you well for what’s to come in your studies.

If you want to go a step further, once you have read this book, listen to Lord Sumption’s Reith lectures. These lectures provide the counterpoint to Rosenberg’s book and can be accessed here https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m00057m8

Finally, good luck! Books like this remind me why I chose to study law myself (16 years ago). And don’t forget to read the law reports.
