Title: Heydon: Selected Speeches and Papers
Abstract (book):
This insightful, rewarding and highly readable volume is a generous selection of the best of Dyson Heydon's speeches and papers.
Most have a legal theme, although the book is of broader interest. As the Hon Ian Callinan observes in his foreword, in these papers
the author "combines the arts of the essayist, historian, orator, obituarist, reviewer, critic, teacher and advocate".
The Honourable J D Heydon AC QC was a Rhodes Scholar for New South Wales, elected Dean of the University of Sydney Law School (aged
34), practised as a barrister (including as Queen's Counsel after practising as a junior for a mere 8 years), before being appointed
a Judge of Appeal and Justice of the High Court. He was the Commissioner of the Royal Commission into Trade Union Governance and
Corruption in 2014-2015.
