This book of essays honours one of Australia’s foremost public law scholars, Professor Enid Campbell. I use the term ‘public law’ advisedly, for Professor Campbell’s teaching, publications and research spanned so many areas of public law. Her work was not merely confined to the traditional fields of constitutional and administrative law but covered the courts, the judiciary, public administration, groundbreaking work on parliamentary privilege, and that cutting edge publication (with Harry Whitmore), Freedom in Australia. She was a member of two major Commissions : the Royal Commission on Australian Government Administration and the Constitutional Commission. Among her many notable personal achievements, she was the first woman in Australia to be appointed to a full chair in law and the first female Law Dean. For this collection, the editor has assembled a distinguished group of lawyers. Some readers may, however, be disappointed at the absence of contributions from the Parliament, the courts and public administration - areas where Professor Campbell herself made significant contributions. Unlike the era when Professor Campbell came to the law, there are now many eminent female academic and practising lawyers with expertise in public law. It is therefore disappointing that, apart from Professor Campbell herself, of twelve other contributors only one is a woman.
