Synopsis

Jurisprudence: Theory and Context is aimed primarily at students studying jurisprudence but also offers benefits to scholars in the field. It explains the often complex and difficult ideas in legal philosophy clearly while avoiding the distortion that can come with over-simplification. As well as introducing the reader to the fundamental themes in legal philosophy, the author also describes and comments critically on the writing of the foremost legal theorists.

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

For clarity, fair-mindedness and engaging treatment of the diverse strands of contemporary legal theory, there is no better guide... This book covers more ground with more good sense than many other works do with many more pages. --Martha Minow, 300th Anniversary University Professor, Harvard Law School

For an overview of jurisprudence that is insightful as well as clear, critical but also generous in its assessments, one can't do better than this book. --Robert W Gordon, Chancellor Kent Professor Emeritus of Law and Legal History and Professor (Adjunct) of Law, Yale Law School

Professor Bix has a genius for writing about the most difficult and frequently arcane aspects of legal theory with a remarkable lightness of touch, an assurance, an authoritativeness, and a degree of accessibility which no other writer in this area can match. --Adam Tomkins, John Millar Professor of Public Law, University of Glasgow, and Member of the Scottish Parliament
