| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | This is a book for all people with a concern for justice. Ken Crispin's dedication to justice has been unflagging; his discussion of its complexities is admirable; his distress at witnessing injustice is plain. When Crispin was a judge of the ACT Supreme Court, he expressed himself with appropriate judicial restraint. It is a pleasure to see that he has shed some of that restraint along with the robes of office. His discussion of the post 9-11 world does not flinch from the truth. His analysis of the West's response to 9-11 exposes how democracy failed us as fear and vengeance trumped principle. In his discussion of Binyam Mohamed's case he recognises Guantanamo Bay for what it is: a concentration camp which too many Australians tolerated, silently, far too long.'<br/>Julian Burnside QC |
