• Sommario/riassunto: Native title has dramatically altered the law and public policy in Australia. It has had a fundamental impact on social relations between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians and the courts have played a central role in its development, and continue to do so. Compromised Jurisprudence has established itself as a well-priced and accessible introduction to the subject of native title. This revised edition is the ; most up-to-date book on the subject. It includes new chapters on the recent High Court cases, including the most controversial Federal Court case of the last two years, Bennell, the south-west Western Australia/Perth claim. The final two chapters now include a discussion of these decisions and all the Federal Court appeals since the last edition. The annotated case list has also been updated.
