Discover 'Watching Brief: Reflections on Human Rights, Law, and Justice,' a compelling exploration authored by renowned lawyer Julian Burnside. This influential book, with ISBN 9781921372360, delves into the pressing human rights issues of the twenty-first century. In a world where the principles of justice and the rule of law are increasingly under threat, Burnside passionately argues for the importance of maintaining human rights amidst the challenges of contemporary governance.

Spanning 320 pages in a B-format paperback, this significant work examines Australia's troubling stance on human rights, including its controversial approaches to asylum seekers, anti-terror legislation, and the implications of significant legal cases such as those of David Hicks and Jack Thomas. Each chapter reflects on the delicate balance between national security and fundamental human rights, urging readers to critically evaluate the moral fabric of society.

As you immerse yourself in 'Watching Brief,' you will gain insights into the legal conventions that underpin civil society and the historical trials that bring to light the prejudices and triumphs of justice. Burnside's eloquent narrative serves as both a historical account and a philosophical discourse on ethics, making this book a must-read for advocates of human rights and legal scholars alike. Embrace this essential text that aligns with the movements for justice and human dignity in today's world.

Should be mandatory reading for police academies and be in every cops' patrol bag
This book should be mandatory reading for police academies and be in every cops' patrol bag for quick reference. I am a police officer (8+ years) and stay on top of search and seizure case law as much as possible. This book is easy to read and gets the essential information on everything that has to do with police search and seizure. The topics are easy to find, and all are no more than 1-2 pages. Every sections cites the appropriate case law and offers tips for articulating PC for that type of incident.

Very helpful for law enforcement
Got this book recently and I am very impressed and happy I purchased it. I will keep this review short and to the point. This book covers everything with various searches including, cars, homes, etc. Anyone that works in law enforcement should pick this up as it provides what you can and cannot do, along with example cases. Great guide for any rookie and even vets that need a refresher.

A must have for all officers!
This book is a must-have for ALL officers. I use it constantly as my go-to reference for tricky search issues. My sergeant also has a copy and she reads one of the sections (about 1-2 pages) a few times a week during roll call. I hope that the author comes out with another book just with search warrant template language.

Super informative and relieves some stress over questions that I have
Really informative and will help with a lot of questions that I have and questions that others need answered. Have been taking many blue to gold courses and I’m so intrigued to possibly make this a deep learning process for myself.

Easy to use
Great quick reference. The book is well organized and it’s easy to look things up. The case law footnotes give a good starting point for any further research that you may need.
