Opinion Writing
provides students with the necessary grounding in the skill of
opinion writing. It covers all the important elements of technique
and pays particular attention to the skill of advising on practical
matters such as evidence and procedure.
Opinion Writing
takes a systematic approach to teaching, first dealing with the
analysis of the issues in the case, followed by the decision on what
advice should be given and the structure of the opinion, and finally
with writing the opinion to a professional standard. It also includes
a chapter specifically designed to guide academic students who are
meeting professional and practical demands for the first time. The
fundamental qualities of good writing - clarity, accuracy and
conciseness - are clearly identified and explained. The manual
develops these qualities in the student so that their skill in using
words reaches the high level required of barristers.
A number of
opinions written by practising barristers are also provided as
examples.
