Synopsis

The aim of this book is to present the principal themes of the main strands of jurisprudence in a form that is readily intelligible to a newcomer to the subject. The work emphasizes, to some extent, the ideas of those who have broken new ground in the subject. The chapter headings are light in tone and draw upon the work, among others, of John Austin, Professor Hart and Ronald Dworkin.
