[Book review] Mainly human rights : studies in honour of J. J. Cremona

Abstract

The sheer diversity of the contributions to this Festschrift reflects the versatile character of the man it honours. Drafter of Malta's Independence Constitution, internationally acclaimed scholar, Chief Justice and Vice President of the European Court of Human Rights as well as Chairman of CERD at the United Nations; these are only some of the roles John Cremona has occupied in the course of his long and distinguished career. In this volume, several of his international colleagues have collaborated to produce a highpowered scholarly work, which is a fitting tribute to one of the great Maltese jurists of the twentieth century.
