The Search for Principle

Lord Goff of Chieveley retired as the Senior Law Lord on 1 September 1998. This collection of essays was specially commissioned to mark his lordship's contribution to legal scholarship, not just from the bench, but as a teacher of law and as the co-author of the leading textbook on the Law of Restitution. Apart from six essays on Restitution, there are also contributions on Criminal Law, on Comparative Law, on Contract, on Tort, and on Private International Law, and a Foreword by Lord Mackay of Clashfern.
