It’s my most personal book to date and also probably the most unorthodox: blending auto-ethnography, alternative timelines and subversive social systems theory.

I am thrilled to receive my copies of ‘Rethinking Law and Religion’. Thanks to Edward Elgar publishing who have done an excellent job with it.

The book features the Abbey ruins at Margam Park on the cover - where last week’s episode of #DoctorWho was filmed!
