The Development of British Immigration Law (1986) delves into the policies and laws governing immigration in the United Kingdom, highlighting the fact that many contemporary issues have their roots in the past. It explores the justifications for immigration control and their connection to nationality law and race relations. The book argues that the immigration laws and practices in the UK are unnecessarily rigid and racist, both in their design and their implementation. It points out that the UK's track record in the field of human rights is not exemplary, but it is consistent with international state practice. Furthermore, immigration is seen as an ideal example of how the UK treats civil liberties in general. The book examines specific aspects of the subject in depth to shed light on the attitudes of the government, the courts, and civil servants toward immigration.

It is argued that the laws and practices of immigration are unnecessarily rigid and racist,both in design and in effect; that the record of the UK is a sorry chapter in the field of human rights but one which is consistent with international state practice; that immigration is an ideal model to illustrate the UKs general treatment of civil liberties. Particular aspects of the subject are examined in depth to illustrate the attitudes of government,the courts and civil servants.
