Abstract
"There is no precedent for so comprehensive an assessment of a judge's work to be issued almost immediately on his retirement from the bench. Not that a lack of precedent would deeply distress Lord Denning (though I think his reputation of waywardness has become exaggerated). indeed, I doubt if there is a precedent for any assessment at all that foes beyond a stately obituary in the Times of a paragraph in the D.N.B. Few Judges, apart from those with a tally of famous cases, rate a biography..." - Foreword
