About the Macquarie Law Symposium
The Macquarie Law Symposium (ISSN 1833-4741) is a forum of scholarly dialogue comprising of a lecture presented by the Division, and a discussion arising from the lecture.
Macquarie Law Symposium: Law, Religion and Medicine (2006).
As part of the 30th anniversary of Macquarie Law last year, we held our
4th "Macquarie Lecture" in the Banco Court. The lecture, “Of
Panjandrums, Pooh Bahs, Parvenus, and Prophets: Law Religion and Medical
Science”, was presented by Professor George P Smith, II, as a tribute
to the Hon Justice Michael Kirby, AC, CMG. Five leading commentators in
the fields of health law, and law and religion, were invited to prepare
short comments prompted by the ideas in Professor Smith's lecture. Together
the revised lecture and invited commentary comprise the inaugural Macquarie
Law Symposium - a new addition to the Macquarie Law publication collection.
