The Rise & Fall of Classical Legal ThoughtBeard Books, 2006 - 273 páginas Legal historian G. Edward White recently described it as the "most widely circulated and cited unpublished manuscript in twentieth-century American legal scholarship since Hart & Sacks' Legal Process materials."

It should interest historians generally as well as readers curious about how our legal system got its special modern character -- |
