Spanning from the firm's colonial-era origins through to its evolution into one of the Asia-Pacific's most powerful international law firms, this history details the mergers, ambitions, personalities, and pivotal decisions that forged a legal giant operating across multiple continents and cultures.\n\nMullins brings the authority of a seasoned narrative historian to a story that is as much about the making of modern Australia and Asia's commercial rise as it is about the law itself. The two-volume boxed set — covering the periods 1828–1970 and 1970–2022 — illustrates how a single institution mirrored the shifting tides of global capitalism, legal reform, and geopolitical change. Richly researched and authoritative in its scope, this is an indispensable work for anyone seeking to understand how law, power, and commerce shaped the world we inhabit today.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49342762090715,"sku":"9780522881080-SECONDHAND","price":100.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/bb0e7555-8531-4b32-9704-27607263a1f7.png?v=1790048742","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780522881080-secondhand-king-wood-mallesons-a-history","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
