Contributors EDITORS Christopher May holds the Chair of Political Economy at Lancaster University and has published widely on the interactions between the law and political economy (ranging from intellectual property rights to the rule of law and the corporate form). Having spent nine years in faculty management, he is now back in the Department of Politics, Philosophy and Religion enjoying life as a normal professor. Adam Winchester was a Doctoral Researcher in the Department of Politics, Philosophy and Religion, Lancaster University. During the final stages of preparing this volume for publication Adam was taken ill and died suddenly. I had known Adam for around 20 years, from when I first taught him as a mature undergraduate to his studying with me to complete a doctorate while also working as co-editor on this volume. Both in a physical and an intellectual sense Adam was really bigger than life and his passing leaves a gap that it will be difficult to fill. Is it no exaggeration to say that without his tenacity and dedication to the project, this volume would not be in your hands today. Adam’s life had taken a new turn with his move into the academy and while it is a tragedy that he will not now follow his chosen path, nevertheless this Handbook represents a lasting testament to an academic career cut short all too early.
