It is scholarly, careful, and thorough, detailing Cassirers position on human rights, ethics, and semiotics, and explaining his complex relations with German neo-Kantianism. In sum, Coskuns book will prove to be a valuable tool for those who want the law to be understood in terms of meaning and ethics .
