• Summary:"John Mark Keyes and Wendy Gordon have charted here a complete life cycle of legislation. It begins by discussing what legislation is and what it does, as well as the purposes for which it is used. It then addresses the drafting of legislative texts and the processes for transforming them into law. It goes on to explain how legislation is found, understood, and applied, including the interpretive principles and techniques for resolving disputes about its meaning and application. Among the works dealing with the Canadian system of written laws, it is one of the most comprehensive in scope, encompassing both how legislation is made and how it is interpreted and applied."-- Provided by publisher.
