This book analyzes the liberalization of legal education and training in Uganda with a view to exploring avenues for the development of a legal education policy that addresses various problems with regard to the quality of law graduates and of legal services in the market place currently available given the large number of law graduates entering the professional field each year.

This book is a study of the law and practice relating to the private legal profession in Tanzania. It shows that the profession has played and continues to play an important and indispensable role in the operation of the common law system and its adversarial procedure that forms the backbone of the country’s legal order.
However, certain shortcomings exist in some areas of the professional regime that call for serious reflection on the part of the profession and authorities involved in its practical application. Among topics that receive particular attention here are legal education and the process of qualification for advocacy, legal ethics, the provision of legal services, legal aid, and some basic principles of the professional system.
The book thus proposes changes with a view to addressing the deficiencies that presently exist by suggesting positive reforms on the existing framework. Their adoption would ensure a remarkably improved professional structure.
Research Methodology is a critical area in academia, policy formulation, and implementation. However, many students and researchers find the discipline very complex and too technical. This inhibits their potential in many aspects. Interactions between the authors and University students (undergraduates and postgraduates), lecturers, policymakers, and implementers revealed the need for a simplified book in research methodology. This book, therefore, presents the different concepts and procedures in research in a simplified way that enables the readers to understand and apply the concepts to everyday life.
