« La Justice pour les Nuls »

The legal system is all Greek to you… you think that official notification means that you just won the lottery, that a candle auction is somewhere to stock up on wax accessories, that getting your case thrown out means that it's time to buy new luggage and that the Bar association is a trade's union for pub landlords… In short, you are completely lost in the maze that is the legal system! Yet, in a society that is increasingly "legalised", it is impossible to remain ignorant of the law for any longer. Without necessarily going through the whole procedure of a divorce or keeping up to date with all the legal system's news and views, we are all – exploited workers, dissatisfied consumers, future parents – subjects of the law. From the voting of laws in Parliament to the wide range of courts and tribunals that apply them, this book invites you to take a walk along the corridors of justice and partake of the multiple secrets they conceal. Judge for yourselves!
