Class Actions in Canada offers an empirically founded approach for addressing theoretical questions relating to access to justice, including the time-consuming and cost-consuming nature of litigation. Full of insightful comments and references, this book will serve everyone interested in this topic: lawyers, judges, academics, and the public.

Craig Jones, professor, Faculty of Law, Thompson Rivers University:
An unprecedented contribution – Kalajdzic deftly melds theory, empiricism, and illustrative anecdote to fully describe class litigation in Canada. Much has been achieved since class actions became ubiquitous in Canada, but Kalajdzic’s book demonstrates how much more might be done to fulfill the regulatory and justice-access goals of aggregate litigation.
