"Written by a veritable Who's Who of internationally renowned scholars in the field, this volume is bound to be of tremendous use to anyone seeking expert guidance on the wide variety of topics covered within its pages. A truly excellent collection." -Russ Shafer-Landau, University of Wisconsin, Madison "This is an exciting volume of new pieces in the philosophy of law. I teach in this area even though it is not a specialty of mine. For my purposes, Marmor has chosen an ideal set of important and active topics, along with top authors drawn from across legal and political philosophy. I'm thrilled to have these available both for my own studies and for use in my courses." -David Estlund, Brown University "This is a first-class collection: it offers original works from many of the best people now writing in philosophy of law; I am very impressed by the scope of topics covered and the quality of the contributions."-Brian H. Bix, University of Minnesota "This volume contains a star-studded cast of contributors and provides a treasure trove for those who teach philosophy of law." -James W. Nickel, University of Miami "The aim of the book is to provide, in our opinion, thoughtful, scholarly, precisely analytical, yet clearly expressed examinations of an amazingly wide range of jurisprudential issues which lie within the purview of 'philosophy of law'." - Phillip Taylor MBE and Elizabeth Taylor, Richmond Green Chambers
