Constitution of the Commonwealth of Australia: History, Principle and Interpretation

History, principle and interpretation are brought together in this new book by Nicholas Aroney, Peter Gerangelos, Sarah Murray and 6 St James Hall Chambers' Dr James Stellios. Its title directs us to the book's disclosure of the dynamic nature of constitutional law — a wavefront moved by the historical, social and political energies of our society emerging from the great body of cases and governmental practices in which the constitutional text has been construed and applied.

The book was launched by the Chief Justice of the High Court, Justice French, on 10 October 2015. The Chief Justice's speech is available online.
