Review of Ysaiah Ross, 'Ethics in Law: Lawyers' Responsibility and Accountability in Australia' (Sydney: Lexis Nexis Butterworths, 4th ed, 2005), PP. VII–XLVII, 1-632. ISBN 0 409 32144 3.

'This book is intended as another contribution to the development of ethical training and ethical awareness in Australia'. It is the most recent update of a text first published in 1995 and has two foci - first, the regulatory regime under which the legal profession in Australia operates, and, second, the relationship between this regime, the professionals who practice under it and society at large. Ross ranges widely in the text and details a number of significant recent developments directly and indirectly impacting upon the ethical conduct of members of the legal profession. The work is, however, a disappointing 'contribution' in several respects.
