He has published widely in these areas, and his books include: Judicial Review in Northern Ireland (Hart Publishing, Oxford, 2008); Textbook on Administrative Law (Oxford University Press, 6th ed, 2008, with Peter Leyland (Chinese Edition, Peking University Press, 2007)); Judges, Transition and Human Rights: Essays in Memory of Stephen Livingstone (Oxford University Press, 2007, eds with John Morison and Kieran McEvoy); and UK Public Law and European Law: The Dynamics of Legal Integration (Hart Publishing, Oxford, 2002).
