Présentation de l'éditeur

Lloyd s Introduction to Jurisprudence is the leading textbook on jurisprudence in the English-speaking world. It enables students to develop a good understanding of the theories of the different schools of jurisprudence, and to appreciate the contributions made to legal theory by leading jurists and others, from the Ancient Greeks to the postmodernists. Lloyd combines a substantial text with extracts from a wide range of authoritative sources. The works of more than 100 jurists are extracted, from Aristotle to Dworkin, and beyond. These are supported by detailed and well documented introductory sections a textbook in themselves which offer critical insight into the texts. The eighth edition has been updated throughout and contains substantial new writing including a new chapter on Dworkin s Interpretivism, as well as new sections on the theory of human rights, on Bourdieu s legal thought, on Nussbaum s frontiers of justice , on global justice, on Murphy s natural law. Amongst jurists extracted for the first time in this edition are Mark Murphy, Gustav Radbruch, William Edmundson, Kent Greenwalt, Scott Hershovitz, Gerald Postema and Jeremy Waldron.
