> Dear All,

> *
> Given the importance of the Naz Foundation decision, and despite the fact
> that it is an excellently written judgment, we recognize that a 105 pages
> can be a challenge for many people. We were therefore prompted to bring out
> an analytical primer which could serve as a guide through the intricacies
> of
> the judgment.
>
> We are happy to announce the publication of a new primer on the judgment.
> "The Right that Dares to speak its Name" has been put together by Arvind
> Narrain and Marcus Eldridge. The Primer contains a schematic guide
> highlighting the key aspects of the judgment with a commentary. It then
> examines the background and finally contains a few commentaries that came
> out after the judgment. The Primer is 140 pages and is priced at Rs. 50.
> Copies are available at ALF
