Lord Justice Jackson's retirement in March 2018 concluded a career
of almost 20 years on the bench. His judicial career has seen a
remarkable transformation of construction law, construction law
litigation and the litigation landscape more generally. Drawing the
Threads Together is a Festschrift which considers many of the
important developments in these areas during the Jackson era. The
Festschrift discusses most of the leading construction cases
decided by Lord Justice Jackson, with subject matter including
statutory adjudication, fitness for purpose obligations,
consideration, delays and extensions of time, liquidated damages,
time bar provisions, the prevention principle, neighbour rights,
limitation clauses, negligence, good faith, bonds and guarantees
and concurrent duties of care. It also includes a discussion of the
background to the Jackson Review of Civil Litigation Costs
(2009-2010) and its impact on litigation, as well as considering
the development of the Technology and Construction Court during and
subsequent to Mr Justice Jackson's tenure as judge in charge of
that court.
Now in its third edition Construction Law by Julian Bailey is the
definitive work of reference for construction law practitioners
internationally. In three volumes, it provides the most
comprehensive treatment of the major issues arising out of
construction and engineering projects, with extensive references to
case law, statutes and regulations, standard forms of contract and
legal commentary. The book in its new updated form is an
indispensable work of reference for law practitioners and is now
accessibly priced for the post-graduate student market.

Now in its second edition, Construction Law is the standard work of
reference for busy construction law practitioners, and it will
support lawyers in their contentious and non-contentious practices
worldwide. Published in three volumes, it is the most comprehensive
text on this subject, and provides a unique and invaluable
comparative, multi-jurisdictional approach. This book has been
described by Lord Justice Jackson as a "tour de force", and by His
Honour Humphrey LLoyd QC as "seminal" and "definitive". This new
edition builds on that strong foundation and has been fully updated
to include extensive references to very latest case law, as well as
changes to statutes and regulations. The laws of Hong Kong and
Singapore are also now covered in detail, in addition to those of
England and Australia. Practitioners, as well as interested
academics and post-graduate students, will all find this book to be
an invaluable guide to the many facets of construction law.
